About me

Hi, I’m Jasmina El Bouamraoui, also known as EL BOUM. 

I’m a German-Moroccan illustrator and artist based in Berlin.​

​

​My illustrations thrive on bright colors, strong characters and a clear visual language. At the heart of my practice is a drive to create complex illustrations in a playful, visually aesthetic, accessible way that spark dialogue around memory, visibility and our everyday emotions. Forgotten stories and the question of how we can imagine possible futures are important to me.

​​​

I have collaborated with clients such as YouTube, Wikipedia, Meta, The Washington Post, and Sea-Watch. My work spans into digital illustration, analogue painting, woodwork and design.

​

Let’s collaborate on something meaningful.
