The 108 Heroes of Ordinary Life
In 1827, Utagawa Kuniyoshi became famous overnight with "The 108 Heroes of the Suikoden": tattooed warriors battling sea dragons and demons in explosive indigo and vermilion woodblock prints.
I trained a Recraft V4 Style on five of his public-domain prints from the Cleveland Museum of Art and The Met, keeping the claw-like foam, carved line and kabuki fury.
Then I gave his printshop new heroes: the people who fight the monsters of modern life.
A delivery rider battles a serpent made of traffic.
A night nurse holds back a fever demon.
A new mother raises a baby bottle against a 3 a.m. skeleton.
The monsters changed. The heroes didn't.

A fan poster inspired by Cypher from Valorant.
The character was posed and rendered in Blender, then composed into a cinematic poster design.
Focus: lighting, character presence, and typography-driven storytelling.
Jugnu is an inclusive clay-play concept designed for neurotypical and neurodivergent children.
The project explored how a product could make creative play more engaging, tactile, and inclusive through its sensory experience. Inspired by the firefly, or jugnu, the brand represents the light and individuality within every child. The clay itself glows in the dark, adding an element of surprise and playfulness to the experience while reinforcing this idea of finding and expressing the light within.
I developed the brand identity, kit materials, packaging, and brand photography, with the packaging designed to transform into an interactive board game, giving it a second life as part of the play experience.

A project where I fell in love with brand identity design. JUGNU has a piece of my heart.
