Meet ArtCoded
The worlds of arts and media are dynamic, as technology enables and transforms how creativity is harnessed, shared, and monetized. Entrepreneurs in this space constantly redefine creativity in an increasingly converging movement of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary culture that encompasses art, fashion, film, music, and dance.
ArtCoded offers an impactful platform that brings together artists, entrepreneurs, and other creatives toward a global audience. ArtCoded reflects culture and influences it, developing artistic enterprises that push forward a new cultural renaissance. The nexus of art and business is conducive to innovation that amplifies artistic expression while considering market dynamics for economic growth.
We sat with ArtCoded co-founder, Gina Park, to learn more about this innovative platform that “helps guide artists and finds collaborative opportunities that reflect modern culture, and brings global media attention. It is also a place for like-minded entrepreneurs to come together which leads to meaningful projects.”
ArtCoded productions and artists have been featured in major global media including Harper’s Bazaar, WWD, Glamour, Cosmopolitan, and Vogue while working with major brands Veuve Clicquot, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Bravo TV, and more.
Park and her co-founder, Reinhardt Kenneth, devote their time to building relationships and connecting people so they can flourish and develop in their careers and goals. They continuously strive for innovative ways to highlight emerging and established artists with compelling narratives that resonate with a global audience. We continue to learn more about Park and Kenneth, and how it led to meeting others with the same passion that evolved into strong friendships that are the springboard of many collaborations. The stories of these talented people will be revealed as a multistory series, where we delve into and highlight the contributions of each entrepreneur or talent.

ARTCODED: How did Skye Entertainment Group begin?
SKYE AURELIA: I started as a model and artist, but I lacked creative freedom. My values of respect and big dreams led me to create a company that broke away from traditional paths. Skye Entertainment allows me to help others, tell my story, and create a supportive environment. My *Light Series* was a key inspiration, pushing me to weave my vision across platforms like film, music, and fashion.
ARTCODED: What challenges have you faced as a woman in the entertainment industry?
SKYE AURELIA: I’ve always fought for my dreams despite challenges. It’s crucial to maintain integrity, surround yourself with supportive people, and never compromise your values. Harassment is common, but protecting yourself and staying true to who you are ensures success. Though it may be a slower journey, it’s worth it.
ARTCODED: What are your goals for Skye Entertainment Group?
SKYE AURELIA: We’re launching the *Light* sci-fi franchise at the end of the year, with monthly releases in 2025. It spans film, fashion, music, literature, and technology. I’m excited to share this unprecedented project and hope it connects us all to life’s best and humanity’s potential.
ARTCODED: What advice do you have for young women entering the entertainment industry?
SKYE AURELIA: Believe in yourself, your dreams, and surround yourself with people who truly support you. Build your character, stay focused on your goals, and grow your network and skills. Don’t fear failure; learn from it and stay resilient. If it’s in your heart, go for it.
ARTCODED: How has being a “Super Woman Entrepreneur” impacted your life?
SKYE AURELIA: I’ve grown, but my core values remain the same. Balancing business and life is key—I make time for myself and my family, no matter how busy I get. Entrepreneurship has given me purpose, strength, and the ability to give back to the world. My values are my superpower.
