Hi, I am Pati.
I am a full-time illustrator and a host of various creative guests at the atelier. Artists from all over the world work here in the Illustra Labor on a wide variety of projects and present artist talks and give various workshops.
For the JKC (Youth Art Club)
I am a coordinator at the Edu Department at Museum Wiesbaden of a Young Art Club - Jugend Kunst Club, for nearly 10 years now. I deeply value the chance to engage with young individuals, as they find inspiration in our museum exhibitions and express themselves within a welcoming and nurturing environment that fosters creativity and warmth.
After my bachelor's degree at ESAD Porto and Guimarães, Portugal (2003), I studied illustration at Belas Artes in Lisbon, Portugal (2005) and graphic design at Accademia Italiana in Bangkok, Thailand (2007). In 2010 I ran an illustration pop-up company in Porto Alegre, Brazil.
​
I have been a self-employed studio host, curator, illustrator and children's book illustrator in Wiesbaden since 2013.
