-The '''Regretful Magdalene''' project comprises a series of graphical experiments that range from illustration to guerrilla tactics, graphic to package design. For example, an infographics reflecting about global water shortage is part of this set of experiments, as also is a fake travel agency propaganda booklet advertising the Pacific's Garbage Patch. The subsequent results are then presented in the form of a publication, which reflects on the common aspects that links all these experiments to each other. The materials I used (both on the experiments and their final publication) try to be as environment concerned as possible.
-'''Paradis Artificiels''' gets its name from the book Baudelaire wrote about drug usage. Working around this concept, I created the artwork for an invented opera. The final result comprises two books which seek to emulate a collector's edition: one is the deluxe edition of the musical score, while the other seeks to represent the opera's program. Both the books have distinct yet related illustrated covers, in which I try to explore complex details through the creation of vectorial patterns. These where then printed in olive green cardboard, whilst the book interior was all printed in recycled paper.
-'''Easter''' is a series of nine photos which construct a narrative based on Anton Chekov's “The Day Before Easter”. When put together, these photos convey the sense of a route, of a path that somebody takes across a rural landscape in which we can see, every now and then, connections to Christian symbology, like crosses and monuments to the cavalry. The subdued light that is transversal to all of them, as well as the near absence of a human figure, holds this series together in a pastel color ambiance.
