Decorative Sunday
In 2007, Spanish artist, graphic designer, and book illustrator Pep Carrió (b. 1963) began a daily graphic diary with images created on the go, using any technique available at the time, and without any stylistic determinant. On September 8, 2012 (a date specifically chosen for the birthday of French Symbolist writer Alfred Jarry, b. 1873), selected page spreads from some of Carrió's visual diaries spanning 2007-2011 were published in Madrid as Los días al revés (The days turned over) by Alberto Anaut's La Fábrica. We present a few of those pages here.
Pep Carrió runs a graphic design studio, Estudio Pep Carrió, and on its website it states that Carrió
. . . draws endless diaries; he illustrates his own and other people's books; he publishes books that weren't there before; he constructs memories enclosed in dreamed-up objects. . . . In this interweaving of truths, a way of doing things, of understanding the world, of communicating with one's peers, is defined.
