Project: Book Cover Illustration – Fière
Art Direction (AD): Rosário Durão
Tools: Adobe Illustrator
Fière is a self-initiated illustration born from a fascination with film noir and the commanding presence of no-nonsense women. Inspired by a cinematic encounter with a spirited actress, the piece captures a fleeting moment of female intensity.
Built on a foundation of high-contrast tones and sharp, tailored lines, the illustration conveys a sense of fiery independence. The composition replaces traditional denim with sophisticated slacks to elevate the character’s silhouette.
It’s a conceptual look at how the energy of a filmic moment can be transformed into a striking narrative presence. The project explores the intersection of personal memory and the timeless, hard-boiled aesthetics of the film noir genre.
