Inigo is a Bristol based graphic designer and illustrator whose practice focuses on the rural landscape, folk cultures, and ancient history. He wants to enchant the land, embed stories into forgotten places and encourage others to find their own connections to the countryside. He also loves games of all shapes and sizes, but especially games that spin compelling yarns.

In 2023, Inigo achieved a Distinction in Masters of Graphic Arts at UWE, building upon a First Class Degree in History from King’s College London in 2019. His creative practice draws from these qualifications and combines them with a love of walking, playing and adventuring.

Enchant the Land is a continuation of his Masters project.
