Brand Artwork

Artist’s Note: This illustration captures the identity of Pierre Cigar through the classic touch of traditional printmaking. 

Symbols of France, Cuba, and Korea are woven together with grapevine motifs, subtly incorporating the brand’s story into every detail of the composition.


From the early stages of planning, the work focused on developing the meaning of the piece through continuous dialogue with the owner. 

The figures of a father and son, revealed along the curves of the packaging, create a visual sense of discovery while naturally conveying the value of a family business passed down through two generations.

The distortion of the forms, which changes depending on the viewing angle, 

symbolizes the layered and multidimensional history that Pierre Cigar has built over time.
