BANANA STICKERS — COLLECTION BOOK
The prompt for this project was to showcase a collection (of any sort) in a book format.
As I’m an absolute banana lover, this felt like the perfect opportunity to highlight this fruit in a graphic project. Thus, me and those around me (who were kindly willing to help), began searching and collecting stickers that come on bananas we buy in the supermarket. Afterwards, I began sketching and idealising the possibilities of what I could create with these elements. As I am Portuguese (from Porto, the North) and also an avid fan of our typical popular sayings and expressions, the idea of combining these two topics felt really compelling.
And so, as follows, this project consists of a short collection of bananas stickers, categorised according to Portuguese popular sayings, which are individually illustrated along the way according to their meaning.
