Sorcha of Sorcha Bridge

Have you always been a maker. If not how did you get here? Not always, but creativity has always been at my core. I started out as a stylist working with titles like Marie Claire and Elle Decoration, before shifting into photography and eventually developing my own style of hand-finished photographic art prints. It was during the lockdown that I really found my flow—combining photography, digital art, and screen printing to create limited-edition pieces that merge my passion for nature, music, and colour.

I wear a few creative hats! I’m a photographic artist and also a freelance photographer for events, portraits and brands. Balancing these roles isn’t always easy, but they all feed into each other.

What does a typical day look like? I try to keep my weeks structured, dedicating certain days to making and others to client work—but life as a multi-hyphenate is always a juggle! I work from my home studio in Sussex, often surrounded by mood boards, music, and birdsong. Mornings are for admin and editing, and afternoons are when I create. My inspiration comes from live music, nature, and strong visual identities—Grace Jones and Róisín Murphy are recurring muses.

My work blends photography, digital art, and traditional silkscreen techniques into one distinctive product. Each piece is hand-finished with gold leaf, metallic inks, or neon elements, giving them a tangible depth that’s hard to capture on screen. They’re collectable, vibrant and tell a story.

What ‘s your favourite part of the making process? The transformation stage—when a photo evolves into a layered artwork. There’s something really satisfying about adding hand-finished elements and seeing a piece take on its final personality.

What have you got from being a part of the Crafty Fox community? I am quite new to the community so I am looking forward to meeting other creatives and being inspired by their stories.

What exciting things are coming up for the Sorcha Bridge brand? This year, I’m exhibiting at The Open House Brighton and launching a new wellness-focused product range that draws on my personal experience with ADHD and perimenopause. Long-term, I want to expand into commercial spaces—hotels and co-working spaces—and eventually offer a subscription-based art and wellness service that makes art part of everyday life.
