Saint Pio - Let's Fight Devil

Nylotipe is a laboratory of art prints, based in Naples (Italy). They commissioned me one of the illustrations making up the 2020 calendar, inspired to Saint Pio. The idea was to making them in a dry wit way, but not in a profane one. When I was starting my investigation about the Saint, I found out he had described to have been fighting against the Devil during the night, inside his cell. So, I decided to illustrate him like the main character of a beat ‘em up, eg Mortal Kombat. The Illustration was realised in red and blue, due to the two-colour printing process selected (Risograph, with soy ink, environmentally friendly).
