Corpus 2026
NCAD Final Project



Corpus is a board game / world building project based off of the immune system.

 Corpus uses traditional fantasy tropes as a medium to make the complicated structures, cells and systems that all work in unisen within the immune system more digestible to the average person.

while in the form of a board game Corpus also works as a world building project turning pathogens, cells and more into fantastical charachters, creatures and locations.

Dubliners 2026
NCAD Final Project



I reillustrated the Dubliners by James Joyce for fun while I was in Poland on Eramsus.

This book helped me through a time I felt very homesick and becuase of that I decided to make an illustrated edition of it.

I made 19  unique illustrations for this editions. 1 for each of the 15 stories in the collection and 4 extras, 1 cover and 3 progress pieces every 5 stories

Green Fingers - Silent Book

Bolognia silent book competition submission
septmeber-december 2025



Green Fingers is a silent book about giviong to much of yourself away without getting much in return. 

The book is gory and at times very visceral. The extremety of the violence goes to show the main charachter literally tearing off pieces of himself
