I like work that pushes me into a new direction, a place where I dont feel entirely comfortable.

Nick Cocozza

As a child, Nick Cocozza drew pictures of Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck for girls that he liked in school and was obsessed with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. To this day renderings of familiar cartoon characters remain an important part of the Scottish artist’s repertoire, as do homages to hip-hop artists and iconic footwear brands. The Berlin-based illustrator’s work combines digital and hand-drawn elements and has been exhibited internationally.
