About us

Marcela Muñiz (1959) earned a degree in Architecture at the University of Buenos Aires in 1983. Her current interest lies in translating her background in tridimensional design into the making of meaningful objects related to her own history and experience, working with the materials she has at hand. In 2005 she was an invited artist at the Akademie Schloss Solitude in Stuttgart (Germany).

Valeria Hasse (1963) studied Graphic Design at the University of Buenos Aires and has completed a post-graduate in Design at the Jan van Eyck Akademie in Maastricht (Netherlands). Her main focus lies in close collaborations with artists, designers, curators and theorists. Her work has a wide range of formats from exhibitions, publications, set design to jewelry design. She was artist-in-Residence at the Akademie Schloss Solitude in Stuttgart (2004-2005).
