Who i am

Hi, I’m Mattia Caracciolo — Italian illustrator, 36, based in Barcelona.

My world blends food, fashion, queer tenderness, and storytelling. I draw with minimal lines and maximum feeling: my style is clean but emotional, playful, sometimes surreal — always sincere.

I’ve collaborated with brands like Ippolita Jewelry NYC, Piedàterre Venezia, Lush Cosmetics, Roberto Collina, Saatchi & Saatchi Italia, and more.

I've also worked as part of the internal creative and marketing teams at Marzotto Fabrics and Unobravo, where I was in charge of brand image, graphic and illustrated content, and digital communication.

I love walking with no destination, getting lost in museums, crying in front of art, and feeling deeply moved by beauty. I write. I talk. A lot. And every time I see something on a plate, I see a new drawing come to life.

Welcome to my world — magical, minimal, queer, and deeply personal.
