Hello! I'm Sofia Lelis (BR, *1998), a designer, researcher and artist based in Lausanne, Switzerland. I've been working in the creative field since 2016, collaborating with clients, studios, and cultural and academic institutions around the world.

I often find myself questioning how we perceive reality. Creative expression has become my way of exploring and sharing those reflections with others.

I’m guided by my curiosity and I keep learning new things. I navigate among theories, design, tech and the arts. 

Much of my work begins with analogue gestures, painting, drawing or photographing on film, before being scanned, manipulated and reimagined digitally.
