ProfessionalWhy did you make this work:
The super-fun brief was to create 6 non-human imaginary characters, each one representing one field of creativity.
1. The colour-pencils box Superhero (Art & Design).
2. Mr. Camera (Photo).
3. The Director (Video).
4. The Siamese twins music notes (Music).
5. Millipede Coder (Coding).
6. Skeleton at the gym (Fitness).
How was the illustration used: Commissioned by Apple creative team, to decorate the huge facade of the the new Apple Store on the Champs Elysées avenue in Paris, 2 weeks before opening/launching the store.
The characters were also used in-store (on computer wallpapers, etc.)
It was a collective project of 14 Parisian artists.
How did you make this work: Mixed technique : I made the characters with real white plasticine, took a photo of them, and then coloured them in Photoshop.
