Iskra Ravelo García
Iskra Ravelo is a visual artist, illustrator, and designer whose work fuses irony, color, and narrative. With a background in Fine Arts and a Master's degree in Digital Marketing, she creates pieces that challenge perception while embracing vibrant palettes and playful contrasts. Her main series, Bestiary and Fairy Tale, reimagine mythical creatures and haunting imagery using modern techniques, pastel tones, and glitter, transforming discomfort into beauty.
