Débora Islas creates stunning visuals for Quarto’s Rihanna tribute

Rihanna is Life

Bold, playful, and bursting with star power - Débora Islas brings Rihanna’s world to life in vibrant visuals for Quarto’s ultimate fan tribute.

Débora lends her signature style to Rihanna Is Life, the latest title in Quarto’s Modern Icons series - a vibrant fan book devoted to all things RiRi.

Commissioned to create a series of full-colour illustrations, she captures the essence of Rihanna’s journey from Barbados schoolgirl to global pop and fashion powerhouse. Her artwork punctuates the pages with energy and elegance, showcasing the artist’s ability to channel glamour, grit, and goddess-like presence in equal measure.

Each illustration complements the book’s deep dive into Rihanna’s music, entrepreneurial milestones like FENTY Beauty, and the unapologetic attitude that has made her a generational icon. Whether it’s spotlighting her chart-topping discography, high-fashion moments, or unforgettable cultural impact, Débora's visuals turn this fan guide into a keepsake fit for the Navy.
