Bold & New Old.
A neo-traditional visual culture with contemporary flavour.
I’m drawn to what is human, imperfect,and alive: the mark of the hand, the rhythm of forms, the materiality of things. With one eye on the craft sensibility of the past and the other on what does not yet exist.
I define my style as Bold & New Old: a neotraditional reinterpretation characterized by strong lines and a central use of vernacular typography.
My work draws from vintage and heritage iconography, especially old woodcut illustrations, reinterpreted in a contemporary way to create bold and timeless visuals.
