Ideation, conception, implementation of an artist's catalogue, featuring his work as well as the personal background story. Although painting seemingly two-dimensional, the artist makes heavy use of materials and textures not normally used in traditional painting, such as tree bark, branches, industrial packaging, etc. Capturing this plasticity within the space the paintings are being created was the main stylistic approach, turning the questions of layout and design into a dialogue within the artist's studio. The complexity of the artworks demanded for zero stylistic superficial elements, giving the pieces all the attention they deserve.
