Thanks to AD Luke Whelan! New book cover illustration for Codice Edizioni: author Ling Ma brings us eight widely different tales of people making their way through the madness and reality of our collective delusions. The Italian title “La donna che scompare” (kind of ‘The woman who vanishes’) evokes films by Hitchcock and Antonioni, which also have inspired this illustration. Graphic design by Silvia Virgillo/Puntuale.
Latest book cover for Codice Edizioni: "Faune" is a climate fiction set in a near-future world ravaged by climate change. Laura, a biologist, explores a lush and brutal nature, fascinating and terrifying at the same time, which erases the boundaries between humans, animals and the surrounding space.
New book cover illustration for Italian publisher Mondadori. Jef Aerts’ "Mio fratello sa volare" (The Blue Wing) tells the adventure of two inseparable brothers torn between being children and having too much responsibility. Thanks to art director Fernando Ambrosi! Graphic design by Copia & Incolla. 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! |
