About

HE SAID Talent Agency is a fictional but functional talent agency where all acts, projects, and work are made under pseudonyms of just one artist (normally).

Established in 2005 by artist Jamie Moakes, HE SAID Talent Agency was conceived to challenge the norms and traditions of live art/performance art. This approach allows 'us' to make work using any medium: film, publications, visual pieces, talks, performances, etc. Works are always rooted in live art with live elements.

HE SAID Talent Agency has shown work in a variety of venues: National Theatre, Camp Bestival, Firstsite, Fierce Festival, Whitstable Beinnale, and One Minute Film Festival to name a few. We have also been supported by Escalator Performing Arts in 2010.

From beginning as a talent agency the concept has evolved into HE SAID: becoming a separate and overall defining brand for me to work under as an artist, creating art as a business or business as art. This journey is analogous to HE SAID becoming the Virgin of the art world creating and evolving many varied approaches and sub-companies.

While we continue to create work as all the artists within HE SAID Talent Agency as it being a subsidiary company of something bigger (HE SAID:).
