Lana Kuidir is a multifaceted Syrian creative with over 7 years of experience in crafting captivating experiences. She pursued studies in Interactive Arts, Robotics, and Wearable Tech at Toronto Metropolitan University, and furthered her skills in Fashion Design, specializing in Haute Couture at the Academy of Design. Additionally, Kuidir explored various artistic mediums, including Jewelry making at Central Saint Martins, and sought mentorship from Barcelona down to Cairo.

Kunn Collective was born during the Covid pandemic, addressing the lack of representation for multifaceted creatives, breaking free from limiting definitions based on their chosen medium. The pandemic led her to close her boutique, co-founded in 2018, where she brought together like-minded designers and artists for unique events and collaborations, catering to art enthusiasts across the city.

This experience led her to discover her calling in serving others through refined skills and a unique curatorial vision. Lana started Kunn Collective with available resources, onboarding ethical designers online, and collaborating with artists on exciting projects.

Now, she’s stepping into the mission of Kunn Collective further by creating a defined category with DAMMA. Focusing on bringing creatives together under one umbrella through curated experiences in physical space.
