Four artworks. A visual exploration of Swiss security.

For the special edition "Forum des 100" of October 27, 2026, I designed the cover image and three additional editorial illustrations for the Swiss daily newspaper Le Temps.

The issue focuses on how Switzerland asserts itself in an increasingly unstable world. Security, defense, and sovereignty are examined from various perspectives.

The four images translate these complex themes into distinct visual metaphors: from the strategic chess game on the cover to the changing nature of warfare and the Swiss arms industry, culminating in digital sovereignty.

The concept and execution were achieved through digital Photoshop composites—using a minimalist, consistent visual language that combines historical, political, and technological elements.

This marks the fourth consecutive year that the cover image for "Forum des 100" has been created in collaboration with Le Temps.
