Freelance Art Director & Visual Artist

Visual storytelling at the intersection of art and design

Sara Soltis is an artist and independent creator exploring the space between graphic design and photography. Using an experimental approach that blends analog and digital techniques, she applies design and photographic principles to craft visual narratives that resonate and inspire, primarily through brand identity and campaign design.

With a background in fine art photography and a passion for expressive typography, Sara’s visual style draws on the timeless aesthetics of traditional art movements combined with the playful practices of modern trends and emerging technologies. Inspired by surrealist illusions and postmodern absurdity, she delights in transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary through uncanny visual twists.

Sara earned her BFA in Photography & Imaging from New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, along with a minor in creative coding from the NYU Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences. She also studied brand identity design and photography at the School of Visual Arts and was part of the inaugural class at the NuVu Innovation School. Prior to freelancing, Sara served as an Art Director and Visual Designer for startups in the financial services industry.

Her ongoing self-portrait series, Most Likely to Come Apart, has been featured in publications and group shows internationally.
