In 2025,  ANIMARIO , commissioned me to design its poster. The festival explores the most vibrant frontiers of contemporary animation, and for this edition the guest country was Mexico.

Our central concept reimagines a traditional Mexican sombrero as a flying saucer hovering over Madrid’s skyline. As it glides across the city, it abducts pieces of urban furniture in its wake. We created a series of playful characters inspired by Mexican folklore that, like a whimsical alien invasion, flood the gray city with color.

You can see some early iterations of the design in the images below.
