Cristina Sampaio’s clear line style comes from a long journey, starting with pen drawings in comic strips for labor union newspapers and evolving through about twenty children’s books, transitioning her gouaches into digital illustrations. Today, her work channels sharp political commentary with a digital purity that paradoxically digs deep into the analog and contradictory nature of humanity.

Her drawings are geometric and linear but also absurd, organic, and familiar—inviting readers into a unique, bold territory of visual storytelling.
