ZAINAB SANYANG

My name is Zainab Sanyang and I’m a multi-disciplinary artist specialising in, illustration, animation and textiles design, currently based in Plymouth, England.

​I create because I’m curious about the world around me and constantly want to learn more things about it, as well as new techniques so I can create to the best of my abilities. I especially enjoy bringing life to static imagery and mundane moments of everyday life. For example, bringing movement to a washing line or drawing the time passing by.

​When I create, I love to explore texture, which leads me to mainly use simple materials like pencils and markers that allow me to explore bold lines and fine details to try to imitate textures and organic subjects, for example people, flora and fauna and the world around me.
