The philosophy of MB Creative’s artistic existence is supported through its unique TIC technique.
TIC favors freedom of action for the individual over the collective. Utilizing our idiosyncratic artistic ideology, TIC technique is an essential and unorthodox approach for today’s audiences.
We create a distinct bond of conceptual artistic articulation – cultivating public engagement.
