Protégeme del fin del mundo is a powerful, intimate collection of poems exploring themes of love, loss, and grief — a quiet yet profound meditation on the human experience at its most raw and tender.

The author reached out to me personally, seeking an illustration that could encapsulate the emotional depth and vulnerability of the work. The challenge was to create a visual that didn’t just decorate the cover, but held space for the words inside — something gentle yet haunting, poetic yet grounded.

The final illustration reflects a feeling of soft desolation and quiet resilience, drawing inspiration from natural elements and metaphors that echo throughout the text. Every detail was chosen to mirror the tone of the poems: fragile yet grounded, personal yet universal.

This project was a deeply emotional collaboration — and an honor — to visually interpret someone’s most intimate truths and translate them into a single image that introduces an entire world of feeling.
