How would you describe yourself in a few words?
I’m an angel witch. Just joking. Or not.
Well, I like to describe myself as an open minded artist, trying to be socially compromised.
How long have you been a model?
Actually it’s a bit weird to me to call myself a model, it’s just one of my jobs at the moment but not the main one!
Anyway I started it for almost 4 years ago, but as a teenager I used to take pictures with my bestie just for fun. I always liked to be in front and behind the camera.
How did you get into modelling?
A friend needed a model for her photography class, so she asked me out. I did not even had raised to model (in a serious way) so far, but finally I agreed because I thought it could be fun. Since then I have not stopped.
How was your first shooting? Tell us a bit about that first experience.
After taking those pics with my friend, a photographer contacted me through Facebook and we manage to do a shoot. That was actually the first “official” shooting I did. I was very nervous, but finally the pics results were great and it opened doors, which encouraged me to continue my work as a model. Nowadays, that shooting is still one of my favorites and now that photographer, Antonio Sicre, is one of my best friends, we shoot very often.
What does modelling mean to you?
For me modelling is a job, but I sometimes I do it just for having a nice time. I could say that modelling is one of my hobbies, and it sometimes gives me profits so I think I’m lucky about it.
It’s also another form of expression and I like to see it as a form of art. Model being allows me to meet different artists and photographers, and I always enjoy that.
A model you particularly admire?
I actually do not admire any particular model. Well, Alexis Ren and Jenah Yamamoto give me good vibes.
If you could choose, where would you like to shoot?
I love to shoot in full nature, such as virgin beaches, forests… I would not mind walking for hours to find the perfect mountain valley where shooting. Modelling it’s sometimes a great excuse to travel and discover new awesome places.
What is your dressing style in everyday life?
My entire closet is just black, grey and white. My style is a rare mix. One day I wear one of my bands shirts with jeans and my spiked belt and another day floral dress and high heels.
If you could live anywhere, where would it be?
I would love to live with my fiancé in a small house that can also be my art studio on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. That place has my soul.
What is happiness?
I think I’m a pretty happy woman, but still would not know how to answer that question. I like that L. Tolstoy quote: The secret of happiness is not always do what you want, but always love what you do. (La frase en español es El secreto de la felicidad no está en hacer siempre lo que se quiere, sino en querer siempre lo que se hace)
Where can we find you on a Friday night?
Downtown with my girlfriends or playing videogames and drinking beer with my boyfriends.
What’s your next goal?
It’s a long list, but for example:
Short term: organize an exhibition of my artwork, do my work placement at a state museum… Long term: study my master’s degree out of my city, I’d like to have the experience of living in another place for a while.
