MENTORING IN ARTS : Discover how to say something through your artistic work.I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen.
I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist.
I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns.
In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on.
You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns.
Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.
Noemi

my students in the past, I offer a complex preparation for entrance exams in art academies and high schools. I also offer classes for those who like to try a new hobby (please have a look at my other offer).

- pencil/ charcoal/ mix techniques drawing
- oil and acrylic painting
- composition/ framing/color studies
- sculpture / working with clay

- photography
- furniture design
- interior design
- moodboards
- illustration
- digital programs such as Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator), SketchUp, AutoCAD, Rhinoceros
The full course duration can be determined after our first meetup, where we will discuss your current work, interests, and goals. Together, we set a realistic time frame and the amount of classes needed to enter your dream school/ learn a desired skill.
Vicky
Group Creative Therapy: Story-making for WellbeingThese online workshops offer opportunity for arrival, expansion and connection through a combination of meditation, movement and story-making exercises.
Each workshop lasts 90 minutes and a typical session may include stretching and movement exercises, improvisation games, collaborative storytelling and guided meditation. Each session offers the opportunity for experiencing and practicing grounding (being connected to our present space and time) and offers us connection with our imagination, with our creativity and with the others in our group.
Testimonials from past participants:
“It feels like Vicky’s created a space that will mould itself to our shapes, rather than us having to find a way to fit in.”
“I always leave feeling like it was worthwhile and like we creatively achieved something. Even if it's something small. Very gratifying stuff for quite a short length of time.”
“It is really beneficial to have someone facilitating these thought processes in the way that Vicky does. It is evident that Vicky carefully curates these exercises to meet the mood of the 'room'.”
“I often come out of the workshops feeling refreshed - a state that is quite hard to attain during this period of lockdown and mundanity.”

Art and Creativity - tailored to your needs, all agesAre you ready to step into your creativity? Whether you're looking for encouraging and supportive classes for your child in pre-school/primary, art tutoring for your teenager at secondary school, or you are an adult of any age looking to start or expand your art practice, I am here to learn your needs and create tailored tutoring for you
In a friendly and supportive environment, you'll be guided to explore different mediums, play with ideas and concepts in art, and build confidence in the skills that you want to hone. We will start by getting to know each other and together decide what you would like to explore and gain from tutoring sessions. Lessons will be adapted to your age, level and interests, and will be geared towards experimental making, challenging you to think outside the box, and most of all enjoying the creative process! I am here to support your needs and encourage your creative expression.
I am flexible to support you or your child with different art forms- over the years I have worked with painting, drawing, collage, film photography, dance, performance art, sculpture, experimental printing, textiles, writing, land art, sound installation. I work with a focus on the making process over the outcome, experimental making, thinking outside the box, and playing with elements of freedom, accident and chance. I take an interdisciplinary approach to Art as connected to all the other subjects and systems in the world, with particular interest in science, nature and ecology.
