She has such a large body of work that it was hard to choose my favorites, but the following three examples of her editorial artwork do a nice job of showing her range of materials and subject matter.<br /><br />For <a href="http://www.neon.de/">Neon</a> magazine, Animals made from luncheon meats:<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyvqQGFjw89Y3pcDndhUQo26z7mc6CESGn1NniZyL1Tl5jyAF4A2mKPMU3zcZzupVoaf_yTl2W0zI5ofEg4XOM-zq3smesLrYwiVw2oYje3e5hbvMQW_ZKpI2ZtCkjbr8Xg3-YxuUhf_w/s1600-h/fleisch2.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329540579577631058" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyvqQGFjw89Y3pcDndhUQo26z7mc6CESGn1NniZyL1Tl5jyAF4A2mKPMU3zcZzupVoaf_yTl2W0zI5ofEg4XOM-zq3smesLrYwiVw2oYje3e5hbvMQW_ZKpI2ZtCkjbr8Xg3-YxuUhf_w/s400/fleisch2.jpg" style="cursor: pointer;

The forms the visual translations of her themes assume are far too diverse. What initially sounds quite abstract, in reality, is mostly practical in that her creations are not generated on a computer but rather by meticulous handwork, sometimes incorporating the most mundane materials. A story about love-sickness is visualised through an embroidered design. Variously coloured tablets are used to compose portraits for a magazine. And in Sarah’s hands, beauty products are given new life by being transformed into tourist landmarks. Whatever she creates, it is done with a humorous touch and a great love for detail. Each assignment leads to a unique work of art, sometimes visually enhancing the content of a feature, sometimes to be considered a work in its own right. In her Berlin studio, Sarah Illenberger develops concepts for editorial as well as commercial clients. She mostly works alone, but occasionally teams up with a photographer.<br /><br />contact info:<br /><a href="http://www.sarahillenberger.com/">SARAH ILLENBERGER</a><br />C/O SLEEK MAGAZIN<br />BRUNNENSTRASSE 10<br />10119 BERLIN<br />T +49 030 24537782<br />M +49 0173 9761051<br /><br /><a href="http://www.sarahillenberger.com/">See her entire body of work here.</a>
