Not Demure

Not Demure is the collaborative project of multidisciplinary artists Josie Caldwell and Ryan Fannin, whose innovative practice blends ethereal soundscapes, experimental visuals, and immersive live performance. Emerging from the underground scenes of the Pacific Northwest in the early 2020s, Not Demure quickly garnered attention for their ability to fuse haunting melodies with bold, introspective lyricism, rooted in themes of transformation, identity, and connection. Their visual art is marked by layered textures and dreamlike color palettes, often drawing on natural motifs and surrealistic elements that echo their sonic explorations.

Not Demure’s work has been featured in both gallery settings and unconventional urban spaces, reflecting a commitment to accessibility and emotional resonance. Through collaborative installations and multimedia releases, they continually seek to blur the boundaries between artist and audience, creating enveloping environments where vulnerability is celebrated and authenticity is paramount.
