  • Nini Sum's artwork in Enciclopedia

    ENCICLOPEDIA is a "100% screen-printed, 100% hand-bound, 96 pages,26 authors,7 colors,4 hands, 2 operators,1brain and a half" awesome illustration magazine made by Stranedizioni from Barcelona.

    Nini Sum from IdleBeats happily accepted the invitation of contributing one of her illustrations to the book. After a year she received this publication with the limited number '211' of 500. It's kinda touching while holding this purely hand-made art book which has traveled all away from Spain to China.
