Illustrator Raphael Vicenzi 2015 illustrations are part of his own personal exploration and how he renewed his interest for collages. This project is more graphic design oriented and is a very spontaneous thing than the need to draw things, which takes longer.

I did not plan the illustrations very much, they are more like loose associations that flutter through my mind and I just try to grab them before they fade away. I work in bouts of creativity, trying to figure out where I am going while I am working on them. More often than not, working on different collages makes way for other ideas and way to place the elements. I am also very fond of re sampling the images, textures and such to create another one.

The first two images are part of a loose idea about modern witches living in a hidden city, in parallel world superposed to our own. They are using the internet, smartphones, emojis and such to fight evil outside of their city, but evil always find a way to seep through their defenses. The three other images are a partly linked to this story but they speak more about how I am going through dark times more than anything else although beauty is still shining through somehow.

With my style, I still don't know, it's just a mix of the different things I see, think or feel everyday. All my inspirations are on from tumblr.
