Originally from France, London-based illustrator and artist Amelie Barnathan creates artworks that celebrate this life and the next one, incorporating elements of Mexican folk art into nature illustrations brimming with color and texture. Allusions to the Day of the Dead spirit, the Catrina, come across as jovial instead of haunting, reminding viewers of the cyclical nature of life when viewed in the context of the flora and fauna imagery present in the majority of her work.
