Hi, I’m Phoebe Sun—a London-based visual designer and maker who works across set design, props and moving image for editorial and brand content. I love hands-on fabrication paired with strong visual storytelling, developing ideas through material exploration, composition and image-making. I also use moving image research and references to shape concepts and narratives, and I’m drawn to collaborative studio environments where creative development and production come together. I’ve built a practice spanning installation, performance, fashion and moving image, collaborating with stylists, photographers and creative teams to translate concepts into tangible visual outcomes and campaigns.
