ART AS AN AGENT FOR CHANGE ✹
Seraphina Sol is an artist and creative director whose practice spans visual art, design, and environmental research. She works from Toronto, ON, Canada with collaborators and institutions worldwide.
With a background in art history, architectural theory, sustainability, and botanical studies, she explores the quiet relationships between the organic world and the built environment. Her practice is defined by deep attentiveness to materiality—earth, stone, plant life—and the way these elements shape and are shaped by time. Seraphina Sol brings stories of sustainability to life through paintings, botanical art, and scientific illustrations that use detailed imagery to engage communities, build awareness, and inspire meaningful action.
Based in Toronto, ON, Seraphina works across fine art, commercial illustration, and site-specific exhibits. Whether creating hand-rendered compositions for global brands or building layered, paintings for exhibitions, she maintains a consistent focus on materiality, ecology, and form. Her pieces are grounded in natural materials; botanical inks, hand-mixed pigments, seed-infused papers, and are shaped by a slow, tactile process that mirrors the rhythms of the natural world.
Inspired by botanical archives, natural history collections, and urban ecologies, Seraphina Sol’s work invites a contemplative engagement with the natural world—where texture, presence, and story are central to the experience.
Her works have been exhibited internationally, and held in private collections across the globe. She collaborates with scientists, architectural designers, interior designers, and cultural institutions, among others, while working with clients in publishing, fashion, and wellness.
A recipient of the A’ Design Award, one of the world’s largest, most prestigious, and influential design accolades, she has also earned numerous honors in recognition of her visual communications, artistic achievements, and dedication to community engagement.
“Rooted in ecology and shaped by design, I believe art can help us see differently and create the conversations that move us toward a better future.”
