Gung Ho

Gung Ho is a cover illustration created for the French deluxe edition of the comic series Gung Ho. The artwork avoids the drawn black outline used in most comics and applies a cut-out collage approach that keeps the image clear. Silhouettes are treated with colour to create an expressionistic impression that supports the tone of the story. The story is set in a post-apocalyptic southern Europe where survival depends on fortified settlements. The image captures a moment of danger, youthful courage and released teenage adrenaline. The digital artwork was made with a graphics tablet.

While studying the city, the future ambassador discovers it anew, like a student discovers a primer at school.

Poster Visual

Audio Technica Excellence is a poster series created for an audio equipment brand. The design places natural grass and seeds beside the precise mechanical parts of audio products. Both elements are arranged flat, so their shapes and fine colors can be compared in detail. All images were composed from photographs taken for the project. The texture refers to an old handwritten vegetation picture book, a choice made because the brand's products are analogue. The posters present sound as a natural part of human life.
