Svetlana Moldochenko – FairyLoot

Svetlana Moldochenko – FairyLoot (Illustration Ltd, publishing)

Svetlana Molodchenko crafts a spring-to-summer visual narrative across cover and edges for FairyLoot.

Svetlana was commissioned by FairyLoot to produce a dust jacket and digital edge illustrations for The Swan’s Daughter, bringing a sense of quiet enchantment to the exclusive edition.

Her approach centres on the fragile shift from spring to summer, where soft florals and light-drenched tones echo the novel’s themes of power, survival, and love. Subtle references to the text are woven throughout, giving the artwork a layered, almost heirloom quality.

Extending the imagery across the book’s edges, Svetlana turns the object itself into a continuous scene, inviting the reader to step into a suspended fairytale moment.

Creating contemporary and timeless illustrations to accompany the selection, Sarah’s images are striking in their simplicity, showcasing her expressive line work and fluid forms, brought to life with a fresh colour palette, perfectly capturing the spirit of the poems whilst adding her own distinctive voice.

Laurindo Feliciano for BBC Wildlife

Laurindo Feliciano for BBC Wildlife (editorial, illustrator, The Artworks)

 

 

Laurindo was commissioned by BBC Wildlife Magazine for an article about the necrobiome - the vast community of insects, microbes and scavengers that transforms death into new life. Rather than approaching the subject in a literal way, Laurindo wanted to create an image that felt poetic and slightly unsettling: a suspended moment where decay, beauty and renewal coexist.

Illustrating a fictional report from the future, tracing the dramatic journey of science from its turbulent present to a promising new era of innovation.

 

Sam Chivers – Nautilus Magazine (Debut Art, editorial, illustrator)

 

The concept behind the image was to depict a graveyard of scientific apparatus, from which vibrant, abstract shapes emerge, symbolizing the rebirth and evolution of scientific exploration unbounded by traditional funding structures/dogmatic cultures.

Nautilus is an award-winning, high-brow American science magazine that blends in-depth scientific reporting with storytelling, philosophy, culture, and art. Founded in 2013, its mission is to connect scientific topics to everyday life, exploring one specific monthly theme (e.g., time, consciousness, uncertainty) through comprehensive, long-form essays, interviews, and vivid illustrations.
