ARTIST BIO

B. 1988 LEICESTER, UK

Widely acclaimed illustrator Sam Taylor’s work is instantly recognizable for its bold line work, bright colors, and fun character design clashing with a ton of different pop culture, found in his work with Nike, Samsung and Nickelodeon, and editorial commissions for publications such as Bloomberg Businessweek, The Guardian and The New Yorker — everything is underpinned with a massive dollop of humor and bursting with excitement. Taylor’s works are closely tied to matters of daily life.

CREATIVE INSPIRATION

Taylor’s characters have taken over the BAPE® logo — twisted, mingled and joining forces for a pop art-inspired look, cartoonish elements interact with the classic iconography for a fun look that, as the artist puts it, “got very wormy”.
