I’m Valentina Wilson, an illustrator, visual artist, and textile designer with over 10 years of experience creating distinctive all-over and placement prints for fashion brands. I’ve worked on graphics for children’s fashion at Colloky (Chile) and later expanded to exclusive print development for international retailers and collections, always aligned with trends and the brand’s visual identity. Alongside textile work, I enjoy building a broader artistic practice through editorial illustration, mural painting, and collaborations with independent studios and brands. I’m especially drawn to experimenting with both digital and traditional techniques—bringing a personal, expressive touch to commercial work, from runway-ready capsule collections to limited editions and public art projects.
