We walked slowly past the reef below, foamy waves lapping at the shore with the indigo ocean beyond. So much has happened in our 50 years together; we have ridden the rapids.” Illustration for the Reader's Digest, story by Anne Lamott about aging and friendship. Thanks to AD Karen Matthes!

Last week I was in Milan at the opening of SEMINA 2024. Ten artworks of mine have been beautifully reinterpreted as flower carpets by the Associazione Maestri Infioratori di Noto, and I also made a live painting performance at the Moschino store, main partner of the event. Here’s an extract of what I did. Unlike the rest of Italy, Milan has been quite rainy in this early summer, so I tried to bring some colors there! Thanks Alessandra Grillo, Beyond The Line Agency and Hines for having me involved in this beautiful project. Plan B: how to escape an unhappy job and change life. Cover illustration for the new book by Valeria Teodonio, published in Italy by Sonzogno. Thanks to AD Ester Mazzoni!

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

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.
