Illustrator and animator. Hairy.

Sarah Illenberger is a Berlin-based artist, illustrator and designer. Her visual language is defined by giving common things a new meaning. She creates installations using various materials and techniques, which are then photographed or presented in public places. Her work appears in books, magazines, digital media and window displays. She also produces limited editions and design objects.

Born in a small city in Finland, Riikka now lives and works as an illustrator in Berlin, Germany, where she also earned her Masters in Illustration at the Berlin University of Arts. She has worked for clients including ZEIT Campus, Der Spiegel, Plansponsor, Handelsblatt, Psychologie Heute, Hohe Luft, Daily Telegraph and Nido.

I am an independent Art Director born in Düsseldorf and based in Berlin since 16 years. I started working in advertising agencies and from there I build up my own business. Since 1 year I am working on my business “Angry Calamari” gathering my own clients and freelancing in agencies. This gives me the freedom to work remotely which satisfies me and gives me great international input.
