Paola Travers
Illustrator
Paola Travers is an illustrator based in Paris. Drawing has been an integral part of her life since childhood, having grown up in a multi-influenced artistic environment.
Travers' interest in fashion began in her early twenties when she discovered the world of Alexander McQueen, which had a particular echo with the worldview and energy she seeks to convey through illustration. In her work, she mainly uses Indian ink to produce strong, contrasting portraits and vanitas, revealing a dark, poetic imagination. Her Les Fleurs du Mal series offers an interpretation of Baudelaire's spleen in the form of a fake Rorschach test: a correlation of ink stains and visual rhymes emanating a tormented atmosphere.
