Commissioned | New Talent

Why did you make this work:
Create 12 visuals illustrating the collection of poems from the Portuguese writer Adília Lopes

How was the illustration used:
in a book

How did you make this work:
I wanted to highlight the femininity, sexuality and simplicity of the universe that Adilia presents to us. I used the codes I perceived reading her poems, where the beauty and intimacy are told lightly and sometimes harshly.
