Illustration done to raise awareness on the world marine pollution emergency.

The translucent, ethereal quality of the jellyfish symbolizes the hidden yet ever-present threat of microplastics in our environment. The insidious tiny plastic particles permeate our ecosystem, and the consequences of our plastic consumption have a profound impact on the natural world.

I’m a professional illustrator with a strong fondness for political, social and human issues, with more than 10 years experience collaborating with several publications and companies across four continents. For a long time, I wanted to do a selection of my best works to show some of the problems afflicting the world nowadays.

This needs to stop. Scientists estimate that there are 5.25 trillion bits of plastic debris in the oceans worldwide — that's more plastic pieces than stars in our galaxy! Awareness is the first step of change.
