About Stray.Rest
Overview
Stray.Rest is a collaborative art collective and experimental media channel founded by Maxwell and Leland. We create visual stories, performance pieces, and emotionally-driven media that explore stillness, movement, and everything in between. Our work is both digital and physical, quiet and confrontational, poetic and unfiltered.
Mission
To give stray thoughts a place to rest—and stray again. To build a space for artistic wandering, honest expression, and visual experimentation. We don't chase trends; we chase the truth of the moment.
Who We Are
Maxwell
Experimental technologist, creative director, and visual systems thinker. Founder of multiple media-based ventures including Stackly and DIlF.
Leland
Visual poet, movement-based artist, and seeker of silence. Explorer of texture, resonance, and residue in form.
Our Approach
We believe in the power of the unfinished, the imperfect, and the in-between. Our work often exists in the tension between structure and spontaneity, between careful planning and intuitive response.
Each project is an exploration—sometimes a question without an answer, sometimes an answer seeking its question. We invite you to wander with us, to pause in moments of resonance, and to make meaning in your own way.
