Feature: 𝗥𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀𝗵 𝗠𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗸 | Another Room

​There is a quiet power in what is left out.

​Turbo Labs is incredibly proud to feature our very own Rakesh Malik () as part of the Salon des Refusés: Another Room exhibition at Gallery 881.

​Malik’s work is a masterclass in the philosophy of negative space. By isolating the vast, ethereal landscapes of British Columbia, he invites the viewer to breathe within the frame. His lens transforms the rugged PNW wilderness into minimalist, captivating scenes that challenge us to find beauty in the stillness and depth in the void.

​Through his unique perspective, the "empty" space becomes a character itself—one that speaks of scale, solitude, and the raw texture of the West Coast.

​The exhibition runs through April 30, 2026.
Don’t miss the opportunity to see these magnificent works in person and experience a different way of seeing our home.

The energy at the BCAMA x POCAM "Visible and Vocal" panel this past Friday was a necessary reminder of the power held within representation and shared narrative. The atmosphere at the Rework HQ in Mount Pleasant was electric!
As a strategic cinematic studio, Turbo Labs is rooted in the belief that storytelling is the most effective tool for building sustainable systems and authentic brand value.

​Attending as non-members, we were specifically drawn to the dialogue surrounding DEI in the workplace and the concrete strategies discussed for amplifying the voices of People of Colour within the creative industry. The insights shared by moderator Matthew Tsang and panelists Yogi Omar and Stephanie Redivo provided a profound look at the intersection of leadership and equity.

​For our team, many of whom identify as POC, these conversations are more than industry trends—they are the core of how we approach our work and our community. We are constantly looking to expand our network and collaborate with those who value cinematic excellence and social progress in equal measure.

Looking forward to the next event! Hope to see you there! Stop and say hi!

Our decision to incorporate the legendary Pentax K1000 was a tribute to traditional craftsmanship. In an era where authenticity is becoming a relic of the past, this camera, first introduced in 1976, stands out with its manual controls and lack of automation. As a photographer, you have to truly understand your tool, including its capabilities and limitations. Without the instant gratification of digital, you need to focus on getting the shot right, waiting patiently for development. The mechanical shutter, built to last longer than the team, demands precision and care. Initially crafted from aircraft aluminum in Japan, the early models boast a superior build quality compared to later versions produced in Hong Kong and China. We were fortunate to find a pristine Japanese model thanks to and loaded it with Black and White Ilford 400 film. Stay tuned for the development results!

Motivation Monday: Cinematic Vision. 📽️
​We’re starting the week by highlighting our very own D.O.P. Rakesh Malik () for his stunning cover feature in Bold & Beyond Magazine!
FEBRUARY 2026 issue: # 759

​His series, "A Day Without Rain," features the incredible Viktoriia Masiuk ( ) at one of Vancouver’s most iconic beachfronts. By blending high-fashion sensibilities with the raw beauty of the West Vancouver horizon in a warm wash of natural light, Malik has created a series that is as bold as it is timeless.

​Let this be your reminder to find the light in every scenario this week. 🥂🌅🌞

VANCOUVER! This is it—the final star-burst before the dawn of a new era. We are making one last stand at the legendary Astro Club. 🚀

​TUNEZ is back this Friday, March 27th, for a special edition. This isn't just a monthly party! It's an exclusive Supernova—the spectacular, chaotic fusion of a star's birth and death! You are invited to witness this cosmic shift with us.

​This is a COOLER PARTY, Vancouver style. A cooler party means exactly what it sounds like: Bring your own drinks, friends, and vibes. We supply the space and the sounds; you supply the chill. It's time to cool off after a heavy week and finally say goodbye to the chaos of March Madness (and the worst Mercury retrograde ever).

​🎧 The sounds are fueled by an eclectic double-bill: (Dj Stoopz) x (NYAZANDA). Expect sets of pure pressure and passion: Funk | Jazz | House | Dance | Reggae | Dub | Soca.
​Everything is powered by the Mighty Turbo Labs Sound System, putting the pressure where it's needed most.

​It is with heavy but excited hearts that we announce this will be our very last event at 165 W 4th Ave. Turbo Labs is expanding and moving operations to an environment more applicable to our business functions. But first, we give the Astro Club community the farewell it deserves.
​Don’t miss the supernova! Bring your own bottle and join the final frontier.

​🗓 Friday, March 27th
📍 ASTRO CLUB | 165 W 4th Ave
⏰ 8PM - LATE
