This is a proposal for editorial illustration, experimenting with the double page and color.
The work started from a text for a magazine about the movie "Mia Madre", by Nanni Moretti.
The work started from a text for a magazine about the movie "Mia Madre", by Nanni Moretti.
In this layout, the grid consists of 6 columns and the text is distributed across the 4 columns on the left in order to build a better page architecture that communicates with the illustration.
Mia madre is an Italian drama film about death and how it's a tragedy incomprehensible and intolerable even when it occurs naturally and in advanced age. However, the angle is not set on the mother, but on the children's anguish, in all its complexity. The illustration focus on the childrens's bond with their mother and uses nature as a visual reference that represents both life and death.
Thank you!
