ALPHABET CITIES

Alphabet Cities is a collection of 26 intricately illustrated works that celebrate the intersection of animals, architecture, and language. Originally conceived as a rhyming children’s book, this series now unfolds as a vibrant visual journey through the alphabet—each piece pairing a letter with a city, an animal, and an architectural landmark. From an Armadillo marvelling at the Parthenon in Athens to a Zebra gliding past the spice-laden shores of Zanzibar, the collection transforms global geography into playful, poetic vignettes.

Rich in detail and cultural references, Alphabet Cities blends whimsy with world-building, inviting viewers of all ages to explore the stories cities tell through their built forms and natural inhabitants. At once educational and imaginative, the series offers a layered experience of discovery, where each illustration becomes a portal into place, identity, and the wonder of travel.
