An artist site has to function as a portfolio without reading as a corporate one. The work needs room to breathe; the brand has to be coherent without being loud; and the catalog has to be maintainable by the artist directly as new work is added or older work is rotated through. Generic portfolio templates couldn't carry that tone.

A WordPress build organized around the artwork catalog as the primary CMS collection. Information architecture was kept restrained — work, biography, contact — with typography and image presentation given primary structural weight. Custom interactions were used sparingly, where they reinforced the work's tone rather than competing with it. The engagement ran across a brief, design across two review rounds, and build.

Ligeia Ozanne operates a portfolio site she can extend directly as her practice evolves, with a presentation system tuned for image-led work rather than reformatted from a generic template.
