Marta is a Spanish textile artist, designer and architect based
in Italy. Her work is based on the application of handicrafts on textile and
objects design with a contemporary approach.
Graduated in the Polytechnic University of
Valencia and trained in Fashion Design in the same city, in 2013 she opened her
own fashion studio specialized in tailor made garments. Two years later, she
moved to Milan, where she lives other experiences as a designer and where she
resume contact with ceramics. This city opens up her creative universe and
motivate her to undertake this project that brings together different
disciplines allowing her to do what she truly loves, to create with her hands.
Currently, she works in her home-studio in Asola
(Mantova), where she designs and manufactures her pieces in the most
responsible way possible. The attention to detail, the history behind each
of them and the way in which they are developed, are the fundamental pillars of
her work.
Her
pieces are the result of experimentation with the materials themselves, of the
investigation of the processes and of artisanal work techniques. They are the
result of the union between design and craftsmanship and highlight the beauty
of handmade things and their imperfections.
