To understand Rosy One, it’s not enough to observe how she constructs her marks—you have to grasp what they represent. Her style is rooted in a life immersed in hip hop, shaped by nights spent painting trains, with music and breakdance as a constant backdrop to her experience. This notebook should be read in that way: like a drawn mixtape, a sequence of tracks that tells how a girl from Biel/Bienne became a style writer with a distinctive, vibrant style, deeply faithful to her hip hop roots.
All the tracks in this mixtape hint at her journey—from writing to illustration, from editorial projects to graphic design. It’s a transition that doesn’t happen through rupture, but through accumulation. Her ability to fill empty spaces, to create dialogue between presence and pause, turns each page into a small visual story, autonomous and complete. Every mark reveals her background—her hip hop education, her physical relationship with space and rhythm. As you flip through the notebook, her style appears as a continuous, coherent trajectory in which all experiences converge into a personal language that is recognizable and still evolving.
