Painting, Engraving, Illustration, and Design Studio

Zoveck Estudio's style is hard to define but easy to recognize: Mexican contemporary, surrealist, and, at the same time, universal and timeless.

Designers and visual artists Sonia Romero and Julio Carrasco draw inspiration from everyday objects, older images, and popular culture to create surreal collage pieces.

Their references and the materials they work with come from the most mundane, unexpected places, but their pieces have caught the attention of clients like Warner Channel, MTV, Canal Mundo Fox Latinoamérica, Central Films, Editorial Televisa, Editorial Alaguara, Editorial Editorial SM, Festival Río Loco Francia, Hola México Film Festival USA/Australia, Fundación Centro Histórico, and the Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia, among others.
