Thuy Ly Leova

Ly Leova is a Czech illustrator with Vietnamese heritage with over 4 years of experience in freelance work creating editorial illustrations, brand illustrations, cover art for musicians and UI/UX illustrations. Graduated from Camberwell University of the Arts London studying Illustration B.A., she is now based in London. Her diverse cultural background and Eastern spiritual influence mixed with Western philosophies allows her to approach work with a unique lens which has led to her participation in over 5 exhibitions over Europe.

​

Intrigued by her dreams and psychology, her work often plunges into the surreal and the subconscious. A dreamer and a storyteller, her narrative compositions reflect on our world by imagining new worlds filled with quirky characters and explore how objects can tell a narrative by playing with still life and composition.

A dancer, Ly takes inspiration from street culture to nurture her playful work characterised by bold colours and patterns. Versatile in style and medium, she mainly works digitally exploring the possibilities of illustration and sequential storytelling by experimenting with technology and combining different media such as 3D, AR and VR to create immersive and interactive experiences for the audience welcoming them to her dream worlds.
