The Busker

Prize-winning illustration in the Bologna Children’s Book Fair contest “The Children-Spectators” (2020).

The Busker was selected for the second edition of the Bologna Children’s Book Fair illustration contest “The Children-Spectators.” I was chosen alongside 37 other artists from among 641 illustrators representing 62 countries.

The international illustration contest “The Children-Spectators” is part of the four-year project “Mapping – A Map on the Aesthetics of Performing Arts for Early Years” — an artistic research initiative supported by the European Union. The project explores the relationship between early childhood (ages 0–6) and the performing arts.
