Creative Partnerships: When Art, Love, and Business Collide
In 2005, Kyle and Kimber Cooper invited me to relocate from London to Los Angeles for my dream job at their company, Prologue.
At the time, Prologue was in its infancy—a small but exceptionally talented team landing opportunities alongside some of the most established companies in the industry. This marked the beginning of a journey that would shape the next decade of my life.
My time there was nothing short of an intense apprenticeship, where I was encouraged to tirelessly fight for ideas, and never find myself idle.
This final episode of Season 1 of Object Subject Form explores the magic that happens when art, love, and business collide.
Kimber Cooper is an entrepreneur with over 20 years of experience in design, film, and VFX, with recent ventures into e-commerce and XR. She has founded three companies: Prologue (where I spent the first decade of my design career), Prologue Immersive, and Spatialand (now called Insperience) acquired by Walmart in 2018 when she partnered with Marc Lore and Lori Flees to create the first retail virtual experience.
Launching a business is daunting, but starting the journey with your life partner brings some unique challenges to the surface. It’s not just about navigating a business but also managing a marriage and family.
Kim reflects on what it means to have a creative life partner and how to work closely with someone you love while navigating life’s inevitable challenges—balancing family, finances, employee retention, and maintaining a steady flow of work.
This conversation celebrates the intersection of creativity, innovation, and partnership—offering insights for anyone navigating the balance of art, love, and business.
If you’re considering starting a creative business with your significant other, this episode is for you.
