About

Cecilia Sammarco is an Italian illustrator and visual artist based in Rome. 

She attended MiMaster Illustrazione in editorial illustration and graduated in Architecture at Sapienza University of Rome.
She is interested in cultures, myths, folklore and naive art. Music is her best inspirational source, especially afrobeat and funky vibes. Cecilia loves the dancefloor.

After a spinal cord injury, she became quadriplegic and created TetraPride, starting to draw again with paralyzed hands.
