Commissioned | Professional

Why did you make this work:
I was Commissioned by the Cultural Center El Recoleta in Buenos Aires, Argentina to create a series of 8 illustrations that would be used for the identity of the museum during the whole month. I worked in collaboration with the amazing people from rojovivo.murales for the production of a mural around all the walls from one of the rooms. The idea behind the exhibition was to celebrate Nature

How was the illustration used:
Poster, Print adverts, Murals, magazines, newspapers, point-of-purchase, stickers, cushions

How did you make this work:
The assignment was to play with the idea of nature. The concept behind this was to show how nature is everywhere. I was asked to design a mural for one of the rooms of the museum where people could have the chance to feel this sensation of being part of nature. The team behind el Recoleta later produced t-shirts, pins, posters, stickers, cushions and even lounge chairs.
