Cécilia Pignocchi is a freelance senior art director and multidisciplinary artist. Born in Ancona, on Italy’s Adriatic coast, she developed a visual sensibility at an early age, inspired by the sea and light. After eight years at Wieden + Kennedy in Amsterdam, where she created award-winning international campaigns for brands such as Samsung and Instagram, she embarked on a more personal creative path. She explores photography when the sun is shining and creates collages on rainy days. Rock climbing, which she practices with passion, infuses her work as a metaphor for the life force.
