Jaygo Bloom is an academic and creative practitioner whose work synthesises art and design strategy. His international academic career includes the inception and coordination of BA Creative Art & Design programmes in Brazil, shaping transnational learning environments that connect pedagogy, practice and place.

As a practitioner, Jaygo builds narratives and designs experiences for the live events and music industries. He is the founder of GABBATV, a creative agency that has produced defining visual works for artists such as Franz Ferdinand and Luke Slater, and for global festivals including Time Warp, Festival Forte and Dekmantel.

Jaygo’s work moves fluidly between screen and stage, digital and physical, cultivating experiences grounded in human connection and contemporary storytelling. His creative language is rooted in the geographies that have shaped him, the intensity of Soho’s creative industries, the post-industrial energy of Glasgow, and the visceral artistic landscape of Brazil.

Now based in Singapore, his practice explores cultural transformation across the Asia-Pacific, treating each project as a sovereign myth to be reimagined.
