Meet the Artist
Berlin, GermanyI was surrounded by fabrics, threads, and dressmakers my whole life. I started learning embroidery in 2015 while I was doing interviews with needle crafters for my bachelor degree thesis. Thanks to those women, I was able to discover and learn beautiful techniques.
Nowadays, my work is focused mostly on portraits of animals and humans using the needle painting technique. I always finds inspiration in nature, everyday life, and things that evoke nostalgia.
I love to impart my passion and skills to others, finding beauty in the verbal and mimetic transmission of this knowledge. Discover the world of embroidery with Santo Cielo!
