The Red Bench project
-

2026 • Commissioned

Design of a set of benches in the park that surrounds the Genova’s Museum of Contemporary Art (Italy).
The design functions as a call to raise awareness about gender-based violence and celebrate women’s empowerment, and is part of national-wide project called ‘The Red Bench’.

The design features a woman emerging from the sea, surrounded by the rising and setting sun.
This reflects the cycle of each day and invites you for a moment of pause, reflection, and dialogue. 






2026 • Illustration for Secours Populaire Magazine ‘Convergence’

I had the honour to illustrate about their initiative called “Vacances pour tous” (Holidays for All),
which helps low-income families take vacations that they otherwise could not afford,
and therefore have some quality time away from their daily struggles.
