Born in Lausanne in 1974, Alberto Russo (Sting) is a painter, illustrator and graphic designer. A graduate of the Ecole Romande d'Arts Graphiques, he founded his own studio AREA DESIGN in 2000. Between 2000 and 2015, he signed numerous record covers for Swiss artists such as Stress or Sens Unik and created works for Nike, Puma and Absolut. Since 2015, he has concentrated solely on his work as an illustrator and painter. Thanks to his drawing skills, he has developed a vocabulary worthy of master engravers such as Rembrandt and Dürer to tell his own vision of Mother Nature and the animal kingdom.
