Fabio Buonocore

Hey! Welcome to my website. For years, I’ve been involved in graphic design, collaborating with various brands for whom I’ve created visuals and strategies, utilizing the shapes and colors that characterize my work. My inspiration has been strongly influenced by Napolitan majolica and fabrics from the Amalfi Coast, merging with the stylistic influences of Japanese graphic design and Western pop culture.

Yell OH!

As you may have noticed, I often draw my characters in the act of screaming. For me, this is a fundamental aspect because it helps me to describe the reality I see. From the moment we are born, the first sign of life is a scream. We break the tension by manifesting ourselves to the world, but even as adults, we feel the need to scream to assert ourselves. The problem is that I see ‘everything’ around me screaming, from TV commercials to people on the phone, from a couple arguing to a mother calling her child. We try to manifest our presence to the world… BUT IT DOESN’T LISTEN TO US!!!
