Tapirulan Illustrators Contest 2026

Capita anche ai migliori di lasciare un maledetto, spaiato, abbandonato calzino rosso nella cesta dei bianchi. Capita anche ai migliori di trovarsi mezzo armadio rosa sempre per quella piccola e solo all'apparenza innocua dimenticanza. Capita anche ai migliori di dover accettare un flop irreversibile e di trasformarlo in qualcosa di nuovo, di diverso. Tipo un cambio armadi.

[EVEN THE BEST MAKE MISTAKES ]

Even the best of us sometimes leave a solitary, mismatched abandoned red sock in the basket of whites. Even the best of us sometimes end up with half a wardrobe full of pink clothes, all because of that small, seemingly harmless oversight. Even the best of us sometimes have to accept an irreversible failure and turn it into something new, something different. Like a wardrobe makeover.

I've started with a single image as way to explore my style. I tried to tell the simple life from an Italian common neighbourhood, characters that don't talk straight to each others but together they make a real scenario, each one with their own personality. From this image, I tried to imagine possible stories, some close to reality, and some others totally fictional.
I've been inspired by Miroslav Šašek and Saul Bass.

Work in progress.
