peepshow collective = a glimpse into outstanding illustration!

london-based peepshow collective is a “multi-disciplinary collective focusing on illustration, animation, and art direction”. founded in 2000 by 10 budding artists who graduated from the university of brighton with a BA in illustration, the agency has built an enviable list of clients, including: the bbc, creative review, the financial times, the new york times, puma, among many others. what we love about their work is that despite being formed by ten different artists, their overall aesthetic manages to stay uniform, while still maintaining a high level of diversity in their finished pieces.

not only does peepshow excel in creating stunning illustrations and animations for their clients, but they also get involved with the artist community by taking part in special workshops and gallery projects, such as their latest appearance at “pick me up” at the somerset house in london.

below you’ll be able to see our favorite works from the collective, ranging from editorial work to posters and prints, as well as animations. if you like what you see, don’t forget to check out their website as well as their blog, which stays very up to date with their most current projects.
