︎︎︎ íris, a visual project, emerged from analyzing three films: 'The Virgin Suicides' (1999) by Sofia Coppola, 'Todo sobre Mi Madre' (1999) by Pedro Almodóvar, and 'Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain' (2001) by Jean-Pierre Jeunet. After the analysis, the experiment took the form of a zine, which enables to tell short narratives, emphasizing the visual work. Inspired by Dada and Pop art, the project features experimental paintings using acrylic ink and plastic, food photographs intervened with permanent markers, and hand-cut collages with acrylic tint. This zine, later evolving into a poster, follow in the footsteps of the films' aesthetics and narratives, forming the creative cornerstone for my visual language. Centered on íris, the project narrates the story of a mysterious, insecure, yet insurgent and courageous woman—reflecting not only the main movie characters but also embodying the essence of women in the early twenty-first century.

All íris’ pieces were printed in Risograph, a print technique that values its flaws and unique colored overlays, the perfect match for this project.

︎︎︎ íris zine has been showcased in over ten art fairs/exhibitions worldwide and is featured in many libraries across the globe. For further information, please visit my About me page.
