ABOUT ME

Embracing Vulnerability Through Melancholic Art, Queer Identity, and Sustainable Fashion

Hi, I’m Sookie-Celeste but everyone just calls me Sookie ^^ .

I'm a queer artist, musician, and fashion design student based in Austria. Art has always been my way of making sense of the world, a language I turn to when words aren’t enough. I’m so glad you’re here and invite you to explore my creative universe 🖤

Why I Create Melancholic and Dark Surrealist Art

Dark surrealism is at the heart of my visual art. For me, it’s not about gloom, but about honesty and depth. My melancholic art prints and digital illustrations are inspired by real, confusing emotions-stress, trauma, hope, and healing. I want my wall art and home decor pieces to be a safe space where vulnerability is celebrated. It’s okay to feel deeply, to sit with discomfort, and to find beauty in both shadows and light.

Music as Emotional Storytelling

Music is another way I share my story. I love experimenting with electronic sounds, blending ambient textures, glitchy rhythms, and industrial edges. My Tracks are a fragment of my journey as a queer, trans person navigating a complex world. My hope is that my music resonates with anyone who’s ever felt different or longed for connection.

Fashion Design with Purpose and Emotion

As a fashion design student at Art University Linz, I’m passionate about sustainable fashion design and emotional storytelling. I focus on using environmentally friendly materials as the foundation for my collections, creating pieces that are kind to the planet and rich in narrative. My work challenges the fast fashion industry and encourages mindful, ethical choices. Every collection is a statement-about identity, the environment, and the transformative power of self-expression.

My Queer Identity at the Core

Being openly lesbian, trans, and polyamorous shapes everything I do. My art is deeply personal, but I also hope it speaks to others in the queer and trans community-and to anyone who has ever felt unseen. I’m grateful for opportunities to share my work at places like Ars Electronica Festival and Künstlerhaus Vienna, and to help amplify voices that are often overlooked.

Explore My World

If you’re drawn to melancholic art, dark surrealism art, unique wall art, home decor, experimental electronic music, or emotionally driven sustainable fashion, I hope you’ll find something here that resonates with you.
