Selected illustration at Livio Sossi Award

The exhibition at Lucca Comics and Games 2022 is showing my work

Happy news from Lucca Junior - "Livio Sossi" editorial illustration award: one of my illustrations was selected for the exhibition. I'm really proud!
The award is organised by Lucca Crea and Lucca Comics & Games in collaboration with Terre di mezzo Editore and Book on a Tree. It is dedicated in memory of Prof. Livio Sossi (Trieste, 1951-2019), who I had the lucky chance to meet a few years ago (that's been a turning point in my career as an illustrator indeed). The exhibition is being opened at Lucca Comics & Games festival between October 28th and November 1st 2022.
This contest is one of my favourites, especially because it always proposes amazing texts to illustrate. Developing a whole storyboard plus two illustrations is a long but worthwhile and challenging work. This year's text is authored by Angelo Mozzillo, "Non mi aspettavo" (i.e. I didn't exect). It's very lyrical indeed, but somehow I turned it to comical drawing about dinosaurs who don't expect that nice falling star to cause their own mass extinction.
See you at Lucca next Autumn!
