The Madrileñer Pride

The Madrileñer is a colective illustration project that aims to capture Madrid’s vibrant essence to create unique decorative pieces for your home.

I was commisioned to make a cover to celebrate Madrid Pride, one of the main LGBTIAQ+parties in Europe and the world.

The Bear and the Strawberry Tree in Puerta del Sol is a bronze sculpture representing Madrid’s coat of arms: a female bear laying its paws against a strawberry tree. An iconic symbol that appears all over the city from manhole covers to public bins. I decided to give a little twist to this statue by drawing a partner for the bear, turning it into a symbol of love and diversity.
