ABOUT
Sena Kwon is an illustrator, senior designer at Arizent, and former art educator in the undergraduate Graphic Design program at Pratt Institute, currently based in Brooklyn, NY.
She specializes in data-driven narratives, including editorial illustrations, infographics, data visualizations, that bridge the gap between clarity and creativity.
When Sena isn’t working on data-driven projects, she finds inspiration in romantic storytelling—not only about love but also in natural light, clouds, the cycles of seasons, and the small, joyful moments of everyday life.
