Where are you from and how does that affect your work?
I’m French-Spanish but was born in Belgium. I’ve moved so many times that I’ve lost count, living in places like Japan, Spain, Belgium, and the UAE. These experiences have allowed me to meet amazing people everywhere I go, and they’ve shaped both my interests and the work I create.

What’s your background?
I graduated in Design from the Complutense University of Madrid. Even though my background is in applied design, I enjoy working on creative projects. My main focus is 3D scanning, and I’ve worked with museums around the world to digitize their archives.

How do you collaborate with other artists?
I tend to work closely with people. My most frequent collaboration is with my sibling, Arapiente. Our creative connection is almost symbiotic. Arapiente usually takes charge of the sound design in everything I do and I work on the visual part.
