Agent Molly & Co introduces us to Stockholm-based fashion illustrator Annie Sjöwall. Working primarily with analogue materials, she has developed a reduced yet expressive visual language that moves between spontaneous gesture and precise composition.
Through line, texture, collage and carefully placed areas of colour, Annie translates fashion into graphic forms and visual rhythms. Sometimes sketch-like fashion figures take centre stage; elsewhere, floral motifs and illustrative elements find their way onto packaging, book covers and editorial pages.
Annie studied Fashion Design at Beckmans College of Design, has a background in fine art and has also worked in architecture. These different influences inform her approach, where observation and interpretation meet a refined sense of proportion, structure and restraint.
Her work spans editorial illustration, fashion, branding and packaging. Previous clients include Scandinavian Vogue, Nelly.com, Damernas Värld, Zetas, OTW Communication, Life, Daisy Beauty and Caroline Svedbom.
Annie Sjöwall is currently expanding her portfolio through new international editorial and commercial collaborations. Discover more work by Annie Sjöwall and many other artists working across illustration, paper art, animation and CGI via Agent Molly & Co.
Stockholm-based Agent Molly & Co was founded in 2002 by Molly Karlberg and Sara Sinnby. Right from the start our guiding principles have been focus, ambition and commitment. We enjoy great success representing some of Sweden’s most innovative photographers, illustrators and stylists, working within both the Swedish and international markets whilst focusing primarily on advertising and fashion. Our customers range from large multinational corporations to smaller companies, advertising agencies and magazines.
Each of our artists has their own unique niche, making it easy for our clients to find exactly what they are looking for. As agents, we are involved in the creative process from concept to finished image, thus ensuring that clients aren’t lumbered with bothersome practical details. For our photo shoots we arrange models, hair and make-up, transport, hotels, plus the necessary tecnology and studio - in short everything needed to create the ultimate working conditions for the best possible photo session.
Put simply, our job is to connect the right artist with the right client. That may sound easy, but making the perfect match requires genuine know-how and long experience. Agent Molly & Co strive to continue developing, challenging and aiming high. All for our artists’ and customers’ best.
