Some thoughts and emotions are difficult enough to deal with, let alone put into words. Italian illustrator Chiara Cosentino, also known online as SonoStataChiara, gives them shape through bold colors, intentionally imperfect lines, and a distinctly dark sense of humor.
Her illustrations explore everything from anxiety, loneliness, and anger to desire, relationships, overthinking, and the frustrating task of trying to understand your own mind. Tangled thoughts, questionable decisions, emotional contradictions, and uncomfortable realizations all become material for Chiara, who approaches these subjects with a mix of honesty, irony, and absurdity. Despite the surreal characters and sarcastic phrases, her work captures moments when emotions seem impossible to untangle, while also raising issues women face in modern society. Chiara’s illustrations have appeared on Bored Panda several times before, and if you enjoyed our previous collection of her dark and often provocative takes on social and personal struggles, there’s plenty more of her distinctive humor to discover below.
