Poster to commemorate International Women’s Day. The different colors used in the posters symbolize the different identities of all of us. Under the motto of “Do it for you”, I wanted to convey a message to help people engage in any kind of movements for gender equality. Because it’s not for someone else, it’s for ourselves.

Norouz-e Naft combines Norouz, the celebration of the New Year in Iranian calender, with Rouz-e Naft – the Day of Oil, that refers to an important historic event: When Iran’s Prime Minister Mossadegh nationalised oil on the day before Norouz in 1951 and, in doing so, revoked access from the british company „Anglo Persian Oil-Company“.

As the first point of contact not only with peers but also with bright colours, the playground shapes our perception of colourfulness from an early age. This inspires us (consciously or subconsciously) forever.

The squeaky red climbing frames, the sand (which I liked to have crunching between my teeth), the giddy feeling of the slides and swings, the deep blue of the sky.

Spielplatz, I MISS YOU.

This work was commissioned for the British musician Paul Weller and was released as a limited edition screen print. As a long time fan of Paul Weller’s music it was exciting to be able to visually respond to his song ‘More’ . The lyrics talk about ‘pushing up into the sky’ and I wanted to capture the feeling of expansion and floating away on an aspiration. Instead of having a figure in the illustration I used the letters of the word More make a face that is drifting away, framed by a pink sky and sunset, wanting more. The cautionary lyrics remind us that in floating away on our desires, eventually we need to come back down to reality again.

Anschlag Berlin is a collection of contemporary posters curated by Sven Lindhorst-Emme and Fons Hickmann. The exhibition was conceived as a traveling exhibition and was presented in the following cities: Lucerne, Berlin, Beijing, Macau, and Shanghai. Each exhibition poster has a different look, printed by Iris-silksreen technic.

What inspired me with the series was no matter what we face in life, we have the opportunity to shape it and bloom from our past. Hoping that what we have dreamed soon will be revealed to our naked eye.

The Tower depicts a year of chaos, learning, and personal growth. A year of boxes and finding ways to turn them from cages into temples.

The European tectonic plates under Calanca meet the African plates like a sandwich, in geological terms this is called “CROCODILE JAW” In that way the crocodile became an animal totem… The head of Calanca Biennale with the enormous support of the stone quarry Alfredo Polti SA, will implement a giant solid stone sculpure crocodile shaped.

The brief called for the poster to contain the slogan “Help! I’m burning!” (In reference to climate change) and a crocodile.

36 Days of Type is a project that invites designers, illustrators and graphic artists to express their particular interpretation of the letters and numbers of our alphabet. This was the 6th edition of the challenge and here you can see my interpretation.

This is my interpretation based on the warm and vibrant sunset of Miami Beach for Show Us Your Type, a creative platform where creatives can share their ideas through typography.

A couple of years ago, during my travels, I decided to start a chromatic investigation. I started to gather every fleeting nuances that attracted my eye through my camera, in order to obtain an archive of visual analogies. Later, I created a project called “chromatic cases”: a network of distant places, intertwined by similar chromatic hues.
“la poésie est dans la rue en couleur pleine de vie„ is a graphic project that aims to represent RGB colours, black and white in a poetic way. Each composition is a tribute to a colour, picked somewhere around the world. Places and colours acquire meaning through the added words meant to narrate the poetry of each shot and evoke charming memories.

Just like their overwhelming live shows (“kids birthday parties for grown ups” with unicorns, aliens, Elvises (is that the plural?)) the Flaming Lips’ visual output follows one directive: “the more, the merry”. In order to stay up to par with the band’s artworks, we created our most colorful poster to date and certainly one of our proudest printing moments: 3 day-glo-colours, 1 metallic tint, one regular. We included as many creatures living within the band’s lyrics as possible:
Please meet the Berlunicorn. Bleeding rainbows from it’s eyes. And multi colored brain skulls. Eyes and eyes. Wait, are these wine gum fetuses?
It’s only that the CMYK images doesn’t do the poster justice.
