Allie Sullberg is a San Francisco-based artist, writer, and illustrator. 

Her illustrations appear regularly in publications such as The New York Times and The Washington Post, and she’s had the pleasure of working with a range of clients including The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, The ACLU, and Netflix.

Through her art and writing, Allie explores offline, analog ways to actively reconnect our internal and external worlds as an antidote to the disconnection fueled by passive material and digital consumption. She is currently writing and illustrating books that blend illustration, poetry, and prose, sparking subtle shifts in perspective and fostering deeper connections with our surroundings, communities, and the present moment. She publishes weekly on Substack.

Allie is inspired by documentation, archivism, and collection as attempts to explore and map our ever-interesting world. These themes drive her multimedia short films, for which she writes, directs, and makes the music.
