Una Bellissima Catastrofe:
Illustration executed for a theater piece poster and flyer, for youth and adults. Executed with acrylic paint on paper. The play is about revisiting the classic tales, the characters are bored with their usual part, they escape from the stiff of their stories to live their own life. With this picture I try to wrap up this concept, princess and wolf escape from the book like if it was a prison. Colors refer to tales ambiance, sweet and warm.

C'era due volte una nonna:
Illustration executed for a theater piece poster and flyer, for youth and adults. Executed with acrylic paint on raw paper. The play is about relationship between gran parents and gran sons, all the the memory grand parents carry on. Sitting the two characters on the same stool, create complicity between them.
The carton background recall the scenography on stage, exclusively made out of cartons. The shape of character and colors try to communicate the sweetness of this relationship.

Scherzo di neve:
Illustration executed for a theater piece poster and flyer, for youth and adults. Executed with computer graphics (photoshop). First I do a pencil drawing, scan it and color all the areas of the picture, and then, remove the lines. It gives the picture a sweetness that lines can't afford. The play is about the arrival of winter in a lady's house. Giving the winter a character seeing easily establish a strong impact on the spectator. The size of this character and the snow that come out of the hat also helps to amaze. Using only two colors, opposite ( warm/cold, saturate and bland), make the picture so easy to read.

This illustration is an invitation to a show, during christmas, the city of Lugano organized a projection show on the town hall frontage. Every night the center square becomes a performance area, full of light and music. This picture is simply realized by switching a pencil drawing in negative.
