SELECTED CLIENTS

 

 

 

Known for her eye for colour, Izzy explores our perception of space and environment, creating playful, visually rich emotive worlds, with a high attention to detail always sprinkled with a pinch of surrealism.

 

Izzy has designed sets for Vogue Italia, The Telegraph Luxury, Lacoste, Ellesse and Fiat. Her artworks have been represented by renown fashion stylist Bea Åkerlund; worn by Rose McGowan and Maye Musk. In 2019 she was invited as a creative consultant by multidisciplinary designer and artist Carl Robertshaw to design costumes for Kylie Minogue’s headline Glastonbury performance.

 

Since her artist residency at Kings College London in 2019 Izzy has been developing creative public engagement programmes with Neuroscientist Dr Gemma Modinos at the IoPPN. This year Izzy has been awarded her first public artwork commission by Bethlem Gallery & SLAM Trust due to open in Spring 2024.
