This site was born from a true heartfelt twinning between Nice and Japan, two places that have left their mark on our lives and nourished our shared artistic approach.

It all began in 2015, during my first trip to Japan. It was an aesthetic and emotional shock, an intimate encounter with a country where every gesture, every detail, every silence inspires. Several stays followed, rich in sketches, notebooks, and scenes of life.

In 2024, we shared this adventure. It was obvious: to blend our two heritages into a common project. From this, a collection of postcards with two voices was born, designed around a shared perspective: that of lively and sensitive illustration.

On the Nice side, we created M'enBatiSiéuNissart. This maxim - so very Niçois! - seemed obvious to us, a symbol to share our desire, through the enduring and vibrant medium of postcards. These cards illustrate culinary specialties: socca, pan bagnat, pissaladière, zucchini blossoms, ravioli à la daube, grilled octopus… and feature a small message in Niçois “E mangi…”, followed by the name of the dish. And because culture is not limited to cuisine, we also created illustrations inspired by Niçois culture, the Old Town of Nice, the Promenade des Anglais known as La Prom', stylized plants, palmettes, not forgetting, of course, the Niçois eagle!

Thanks to our favorite spots in Libération, Nice, Kiosque Tintin and Socc'Tram, where we feast every day and for whom we designed 3 postcards: pan bagnat, socca and ravioli à la daube.

On the Japan side, Callillygraphies™ blend calligraphy, watercolor, pastel, and inks. They capture, like snapshots of daily life: here the poetry of an alleyway, there a face, sake bottles... Original Japanese artworks are available for sale, in addition to their reproduction as postcards.

The mediums are the same, the spirit is dual. This shop is a bridge between two cultures, two sensibilities, united by a shared life journey, a desire to communicate differently, and a common passion for line drawing.
