about the artist

byTamara Hilje

San Jose, CR

I love color and texture. A Costa Rican recently moved to Barcelona, I'm inspired by the lush vegetation of my home country and the colorful eclectic ambiance of my new city. My designs tend to be happy and playful. I'm a maker who enjoys a myriad of art, craft and technical mediums, learning and experimenting on new ones all the time. I'm delighted traveling, getting to know new places, their people and culture, and oh!! tasting their food, to incorporate what I find in my own cooking.
