The following 2 pages are from a review of the Shakespearean “The Merchant of Venice. The purpose of the work was merging together a classic scenery with “futuristic” characters.

Dresses and hair style are typical of the contemporary manga. In addition, I introduced some little tattoos on the main character’s face to make him unique and recognizable and that can remind tothe decorations on the Venice’s traditional masks.

POETRY AND SEQUENTIAL ART

An experimental page in which I tried to translatea piece of poetry from Pablo Neruda into the language of the graphic novel.

The verses in English are:«I crave your mouth, your voice, your hair. Silent, starving I prowl through the streets. Bread does not nourish me, dawn disquiets me»

thank YOU!
