Concept
Illustration

What was intended as an illustration of a simple recipe for scrambled eggs turned out to be a series of illustrations that visualize the journey of home-made eggs in Portugal. From feeding the chickens to buying them from friends or acquaintances who have their own hens, and finally using them in everyday cooking. Portugal is a country where eggs are an essential ingredient in countless recipes, and I love this originality that surrounds them—it has something almost poetic about it. The illustrations capture not just the process, but the charm of tradition, simplicity, and authenticity, applied to a ceramic plate.
