NOMADIC MIND Editorial Illustration
Nomadic Mind — Editorial Illustration A digital illustration exploring intellectual nomadism, inspired by Kenneth White’s writings.

Windows reveal fragments of places, memories, and possible lives, existing simultaneously. Created with Procreate and Affinity Photo/Designer, using custom brushes and risograph-inspired textures to add tactility and archival depth. This project combines conceptual storytelling with a contemporary digital illustration approach, ideal for editorial, travel, culture, and philosophy contexts. editorial illustration, digital illustration, conceptual art, intellectual nomadism, travel illustration, imagination, identity, creative process

The Dionysian Devide
The Dionysian Divide is a conceptual illustration inspired by Greek vase painting, visualizing the human tension between ecstasy and restraint. At its base, figures anchor the structured Dionysian cult, while two figures dance atop: a golden figure embodying surrender and a turquoise-aqua figure representing cautious reflection. The illustration has been transformed into a conceptual poster, creating an imagined “event space” with the symbolic date XI / II and the call-to-action “Which side will you choose?”. It demonstrates how conceptual artwork can extend into practical applications for exhibitions, editorial layouts, or inspirational spaces, while engaging viewers in reflection on choice and balance.

FOAM GODDESS (ft. Aphrodite) - Illustration
This illustration is part of a self-initiated series exploring Greek mythology through a modern and humorous lens. Here, Aphrodite takes the spotlight: instead of engaging with the drama of her partners Ares and Hephaistos, she chooses self-care and a violet foam bath. At the center, I placed the Goddess bath bomb by LUSH – a symbol of relaxation, empowerment, and reimagining mythology in a contemporary way. Through this series, I explore how ancient myths can be retold and reframed with fresh, modern imagery.
