Master Class #2: Allan Xia

Allan Xia 夏昊禹 is an 1.5 generation New Zealand Chinese artist and creative entrepreneur whose work spans a broad spectrum of creative disciplines such as illustration, comics and videogames.  He is also the director of Kognika Ltd - an boutique creative agency.

As the founding director of Chromacon indie arts festival, he hosted a workshop on professional practice, thriving and surviving in our creative industries.  The session was split between a break down of his own creative journey thus far (lessons learnt from both successes and failures!), and an intimate group strategy roundtable.
