Berlin-based illustrator Josephine Rais created the visual world for Casio Education Germany’s pilot project “Women Do Science” in North Rhine-Westphalia, portraying five women from the fields of science and technology.
The project aims to make female role models in STEM more visible and inspire girls in particular to pursue careers in science and technology. The illustrations appear on Casio calculators as well as throughout the initiative’s visual communication.
Josephine Rais’ work extends far beyond the classic editorial context: for Breuninger, she contributed to the colourful Fashion x Food concept.
As part of the Bundesliga Common Ground project, she also transformed an inner-city football pitch in Berlin. Ideas from local children became part of the artwork, with Josephine combining natural elements and urban symbols to translate their view of Berlin into a large-scale, colourful playing field.
Josephine Rais lives and works in Berlin and is represented by Agent Molly & Co.
Stockholm-based Agent Molly & Co was founded in 2002 by Molly Karlberg and Sara Sinnby. Right from the start our guiding principles have been focus, ambition and commitment. We enjoy great success representing some of Sweden’s most innovative photographers, illustrators and stylists, working within both the Swedish and international markets whilst focusing primarily on advertising and fashion. Our customers range from large multinational corporations to smaller companies, advertising agencies and magazines.
Each of our artists has their own unique niche, making it easy for our clients to find exactly what they are looking for. As agents, we are involved in the creative process from concept to finished image, thus ensuring that clients aren’t lumbered with bothersome practical details. For our photo shoots we arrange models, hair and make-up, transport, hotels, plus the necessary tecnology and studio - in short everything needed to create the ultimate working conditions for the best possible photo session.
Put simply, our job is to connect the right artist with the right client. That may sound easy, but making the perfect match requires genuine know-how and long experience. Agent Molly & Co strive to continue developing, challenging and aiming high. All for our artists’ and customers’ best.
