Portrait of Jess Bilski, Sydney-based graphic designer and art director

Jess Bilski

Sydney-Based Graphic Designer & Art Director

Hey, I'm Jess. I'm a Sydney-based graphic designer with 10 years’ experience designing for fashion, live events, hospitality and small businesses.

After graduating with Honours in Visual Communication and starting my freelance career in 2016, I have loved exploring tactility in digital design. From 2017 I have worked in-house across entertainment and fashion — designing branding, campaigns and event artwork for the likes of St Frock, Century Artists and Century Venues, including work on the Sydney, Perth and Fringe Comedy Festivals and the Sydney Guitar Festival, and most recently as a Brand Graphic Designer for City Chic.

In my freelance work, I focus on bold, textured, strategic design that blends commercial priorities with creative storytelling — from designing for venues like Oxford Art Factory, Canberra Theatre Centre and the Agincourt Hotel, to campaign and identity work for organisations like the Australian Music Venue Foundation and the Live Music Venues Alliance. Currently, I take on a small number of projects at a time, from a single logo through to a full campaign.
