Hi, my name is Aida Sulova.
I am a Creative Director and an Independent Curator based in New York. I create concepts and art projects to build communities and bring social changes to the world. Experienced in design, art direction, branding, multi-media production, including animation, video, photography, and web design.
Community Engagement
Community engagement through art and educational projects promotes critical thinking, cultural enrichment and democracy in the country. With that in mind, I have conceptualized and founded Asanbay Art Center, a multidisciplinary transformable venue in Central Asia with ability to adapt and bring creative visions to life.
Social Campaigns
I believe in transformational power of art. I launched an anti-plastic bag campaign "Once Upon a Plastic Bag" to raise awareness of the rampant garbage problem in the world.
Collaborations and Production
Many of these community-centric projects are created and envisioned with the help of professional artists. Among such projects are Artystan, Public Art Program for the American University of Central Asia, and Partizaning, series of city interventions.

Curatorial
As a Creative Director and Curator, I had an opportunity to curate a number of art shows of artists from Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Georgia, Germany, and Russia.
Commercial
I create community-oriented commercial brands. Through collaborative workshops and dialogues, I establish trust and loyalty in achieving the client's goals. As a Creative Director, I like working with passionate collaborators and experience creators. Together, we tell the stories through visualizing the client's strength and uniqueness.
