Brief CV

Doctoral candidate in Plant Biology at the University of the Balearic Islands since 2020, her research focuses on the use of dye plants from the Balearic Islands to create calico fabrics. Graduated in Fine Arts from the University of Barcelona (2010–2014), she enhanced her training in soft materials, organic pigments, and performance art by studying alongside masters and artists like Michel Garcia in France; Ole Müller and Dorothea Seror in Germany; and Francesca Piñol and Dario Zeruto in Spain.

Since 2016, she has been lecturing at the University of the Balearic Islands, leading workshops and seminars on the use of Mallorcan dye plants. She has been a collaborating professor in courses like Ethnobotany of the Balearic Islands for the Diploma of Specialization in Art and Culture at the UOM and participated in educational innovation projects such as De l'Hort a l'Art (From the Garden to Art). Additionally, she has collaborated with institutions like the Joan March Foundation Museum (Spain), the Greta Art School (France), and the Museum of Industry, Labor, and Textile (Belgium), participating in programs that explore natural materials in art.

Her main research areas include the use of dye plants from the Balearic Islands, developing color palettes, and integrating sustainable practices into art and design. Since 2017, she has published and presented articles and educational materials in Langscape Magazine (Canada) and through organizations like the Sóller Botanical Garden Foundation–Balearic Museum of Natural Sciences, the Documentation Center and Textile Museum of Terrassa, and the University of the Balearic Islands (Spain).

Since 2012, she has exhibited in Germany and Spain, with her work showcased at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste München (Munich), Aba Art Lab (Palma), Lugar Usual (Madrid), among others. Her artistic practice blends traditional and experimental techniques, delving into the rich colours of Mediterranean flora and encouraging a playful yet respectful exploration of the environment. In 2016, she received an Honorable Mention from the Pilar and Joan Miró Foundation for her artistic research. 

Currently, she is the lead professor for the courses Pictorial Processes and Projects I and II in the Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts at ADEMA–University of the Balearic Islands.
