Iker Casillas
Saint Iker portrait for NPLH issue 9, turning Casillas and that 2010 Robben save into a football relic somewhere between engraving and hallucination.
About the Project
Built around that save against Robben in 2010 — which may or may not have had divine assistance involved.
Created for NPLH issue 9: Divine Intervention, the image borrows from religious iconography, Gustave Doré, holographic trading cards, and whatever else felt appropriately overblown.
The result lands somewhere between saint card, fever dream, and football myth-making, which felt like the right place for Iker Casillas.
A curated image run built to let the print object, surface, and detail breathe on the page.
Open any figure to inspect surface, print detail, and framing more closely without losing the overall sequence.
Sequence note
The closing plates are intended to read like a print-room pass: object, surface, and image held in sequence rather than treated as isolated uploads.
