About me

I’m Ricky Rxse, a Director and Creative Director with a passion for art and a meticulous eye for detail, especially when it comes to culture and sub-cultural nuances. My work is all about bridging the gap between art and culture, creating narratives that resonate deeply and leave a lasting impact. As the co-founder of RIB—Roses in Brooklyn, I’ve dedicated myself to crafting authentic stories that matter. I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with some incredible brands and institutions, including Nike, Spotify, V&A, Land Rover, YouTube, Instagram, Design Museum, Amazon, Vogue, and the Young Vic. Each project showcases my versatility and adaptability in storytelling, allowing me to bring unique perspectives to life across various platforms. I’m driven by a love for creativity and a commitment to producing work that goes beyond the surface, connecting with audiences in meaningful ways. For me, it’s all about telling stories that truly capture the essence of the experiences and cultures they represent.

Projects

• Lynda Dawn - 11th HourRicky Rxse directs the music video for soul singer Lynda Dawn's gorgeous 11th Hour, blending the nostalgic charm of 1960s and 1970s black-and-white cinema with avant-garde retro-futurism and modern aesthetics, in keeping with the classic '70s soul influences on the track.
• V&A - RUINS by FUBUNATIONFUBUNATION bring their performance of 'Ruins' to the galleries of the V&A, exploring the balance between conflict, vulnerability and co-dependency. The piece addresses the myth of masculinity as it's felt within the Pan-African diaspora: by creating a space where the black male figure is more visible and honestly represented, it gives powerful testimony to the generational trauma inherited by men from marginalised groups
• Marcus Rashford - HighSnobiety
