History

Estefanía Franco's creative journey began as a graphic designer but her unrelenting desire to experiment with new media and create 3-dimensional and large-scale art objects led her to become a self-taught textile artist and rug maker. With an artistic vision that centers on the interplay of color, shape, and movement, Estefanía founded her studio in Mexico in 2020 before relocating to Barcelona in 2021. She started out at la Clandestina de Poblenou, a co-working space for artists, designers, and makers but has recently moved to a new location in el Born. However, she continues to collaborate with La Clandestina’s creative community through events and workshops. Her practice focuses on the tufting technique, which she employs to transform her graphic and vibrantly illustrated designs into textured masterpieces that bring vitality to interior spaces. By using the tufting gun and a diverse range of colorful threads, Estefanía creates captivating textures and forms that evoke both dynamism and emotion. ESP: ESP El camino creativo de Estefanía Franco comenzó como diseñadora gráfica, pero su deseo inquebrantable de experimentar con nuevos medios y crear objetos de arte tridimensionales y de gran escala la llevó a convertirse en una artista textil y fabricante de alfombras autodidacta. Con una visión artística centrada en la interacción del color, la forma y el movimiento, Estefanía fundó su estudio en México en 2020 antes de trasladarse a Barcelona en 2021. Comenzó en la Clandestina de Poblenou, un espacio colaborativo para artistas, diseñadores y creadores, pero recientemente se mudó a una nueva ubicación en el Born. Sin embargo, continúa colaborando con la comunidad creativa de La Clandestina a través de eventos y talleres. Su práctica se centra en la técnica de la tufting, que utiliza para transformar sus diseños gráficos y vibrantes en obras maestras texturizadas que dan vitalidad a los espacios interiores. Al utilizar la pistola de tufting y una amplia gama de hilos coloridos, Estefanía crea texturas y formas cautivadoras que evocan tanto dinamismo como emoción.
