I began my journey in visual arts while earning my degree in Creation and Design. I became fascinated with mixed media, frequently using photography as a foundation for my work. Over time, I adapted my practice for diverse environments—including murals, festivals, and workshops—which allowed me to master various materials and formats while fostering a lifelong love for learning. While I value analog processes, I discovered a true passion for the digital realm. This led me to bridge the gap between visual arts and graphic design, eventually honing my focus on editorial, UX, and motion design during my time at BANILA Studio and Bisual in Bilbao. Today, alongside my colleague Rocío López, I am the co-founder of Piknik, where I specialize in exhibition design. Creativity and continuous growth are at the heart of everything I do. Since moving from Georgia to a new country at 16, I have spent the last eight years mastering the art of adaptation. Today, at 24, I bring that same energy to my professional life—constantly evolving with new technologies, formats, and team dynamics. I am a lifelong learner who values collaboration and the challenge of a fast-paced workplace.
