It's Nice That commissioned me to visualise my favourite moment of the World Cup 2018.

Just before the World Cup started, I was in Italy and after talking to a few locals about how they didn’t qualify for the World Cup many of them said that it was a national tragedy and the whole country will rather pretend as if the World Cup was cancelled and isn’t taking place instead of admitting that their team didn’t qualify. I loved the pride and emotion of that thought and decided to interpret this by imaging Italy would rather go so far into making a big memorial for the cancelled World Cup than admitting their team’s disappointing performance. Next generations will still talk about 2018, the year the World Cup was cancelled. made with Lay Theme
