The universe I am developing is aimed at both children and adults who have retained a visual curiosity and a taste for sensitive stories.
This first illustrated collection is conceived as a gateway: a set of colorful, poetic and expressive images, on the border between the world of childhood and abstraction.
Children's stories particularly appeal to me because they allow for a free and sincere approach to color, form, and emotion. Here, each illustration becomes a fragment of a narrative—an open scene, an atmosphere, a symbol—leaving it up to each reader to imagine their own story.
The illustrations in this collection are applied to various media, carefully chosen to enhance both the visual and tactile experience. Paper, illustrated objects, and printed surfaces become narrative vehicles in their own right.
An introductory collection , The beginning of the tale lays the foundations for a universe destined to evolve, expand and be enriched through the stories to come.
A collection to look at, to touch and to feel.
A beginning.
