Cover art for Courrier International about how cities are trying to adapt to repeated heat waves. It's nice when illustrations have a second life! Thanks to picture editor Lidwine Kervella and to Theispot stock!   This piece is my contribution to the exhibition IN CAMMINO held at the prestigious Palazzo Madama in Turin, Italy (July 12 - October 13, 2023). The project tells stories from the Piedmont area crossed by the Via Francigena, the ancient road and pilgrimage route running from the cathedral city of Canterbury in England, through France and Switzerland, to Rome. I represented the pilgrimage route like the thread of a ball of yarn that the pilgrim carries with him on his journey. The tangle represents the many kinds of motivations behind the pilgrimage: spiritual, devotional, sometimes even penitential, as it was originally in the Middle Ages. Proceeding on the journey, the skein gradually unravels until it completely dissolves at the end of the pilgrimage. Thanks to Ale Giorgini and to Professor Villa, director of Palazzo Madama, for having me involved me in this project!    Two illustrations made for Abracadabra Limited Collection by Compagnia dei Caraibi, Italian company specialized in the import and distribution of spirits and soft drinks. These works reflect the themes of Culture and Social & Gender Equality, which along with Environment and People are the key areas where the company concentrates its efforts in order to make the difference and bring about a change in the world we live in. Thanks to the team of Graphic Days® who coordinated the project!   The collection is part of the “Abracadabra” project launched by Graphic Days®, which consists in 60 works donated by internationally renowned illustrators whose proceeds will be donated to the project "Give a tree" with the aim of planting new trees in the city od Torino, Italy. You can buy the art prints at printclubtorino.it/abracadabra Cover illustration for the new book by Borghingordi, a couple of young influencers who travels across Italy and shares tips and fun facts about the places they visit. Published by Sonzogno Editore.    An illustration for Internazionale about how HBO subverted the rules of TV shows in the 1990s. Their producers took such bold risks on shows that were darker, more libidinal and more surreal than those on other networks. Original article here.  An illustration I did some time ago about timeshare traps and how fraudulent firms promise to take a timeshare you no longer want off your hands, but do little more than take your money.  I've been asked by Italian publishing group QN Quotidiano Nazionale to create a couple of poster illustrations and logotypes celebrating the iconic landmarks of Milan and Bologna. The posters have been released by the local newspapers Il Giorno and Il Resto del Carlino on December 7 and 8, 2022.     The logos merge the traditional foods with the most popular monuments of the two cities: Panettone and Cathedral (Duomo) for Milan; Tortellino and Two Towers for Bologna. https://www.ilrestodelcarlino.it/bologna/cosa%20fare/mania-poster-regalo-1.8359298
