Sophie Toulouse

Sophie Toulouse captures the beauty and uncertainty of life with her large-scale visual installations. Working from her studio in Paris, Toulouse is the quintessential digital artist, bringing lush graphic design to life on the stark white walls of galleries the world over.

Victorian style, punk, art deco and pop art are the sort of styles which influence and inspire her work.

I looked at her work last year whilst working on a brief and I find her work inspirational and intriguing. She puts a lot of attention to detail into the pieces and they work because the illustrative art is impacting and eye catching.
