Iris Du

Iris Du is a New York-based illustrator and artist whose work explores self-awareness, nature, imagination, and the cycles of life. Observing the world with a keen eye, she turns subtle impressions into nuanced visual stories. Her artistic practice is deeply inspired by gardening. Tending to plants provides an endless source of creative fuel, deepening her understanding of life, beauty, and growth. In her process, she blends tactile traditional media with digital tools, preserving a delicate warmth in her imagery.

Her background across design education, journalism, and editorial publishing has refined her observational skills and narrative voice. She holds an MFA in Illustration from the Fashion Institute of Technology and a BFA in Communications Design from Pratt Institute.
