About me
Hi, I’m Angelica (friends and family call me Martina). I’m a Multidisciplinary Artist and Graphic Designer from South London, specialising in vibrant, imaginative and conceptual work.
Despite my work being research-led, as an artist and academic, childlike play is at the foundation of my practice, helping fuel my creative curiosity to unpack hard-hitting topics.
The universe of my work has a number of unorthodox and strange worlds. It’s often playful and fluid, but I also like to explore social and systemic issues, such as generational trauma, identity, and education. Regardless of which world I choose to inhabit, it’s important to me to find new ways of tackling issues that inspire my audience to participate, question, and play.
Although I have a background in Graphic Design, I primarily work in analogue form, using digital techniques to further my research-based practice.
Anyone who knows me well would say I’m quite an introverted type of being. As someone with an anxiety disorder, I tend to keep most of my thoughts to myself but use my work as a form of release. This is probably the only time you would see me as extroverted!
