Bio

Ana Wika

Alicante (Spain), 1979.

Multimedia artist and specialist in corporate image, she has carried out experimental electronic projects with light/sound/color creating ethereal visual effects that shape her perception of what cannot be seen with the naked eye. On the other hand, she has made more explicit artistic works demonstrating for gender equality as a «DIOSAS» experimental short film, 2015.

At the beginning her works were characterized by the explosion that emanated from herself towards the outside using mainly digital tools. She is currently rewriting her story by adding painting and mixed techniques to get back in touch with the warmth that matter brings to her. She transits between the tangible and the digital from a more intimate perspective.

Within the advertising field, she has worked in several fields such as new technologies, fashion, culture or tourism in countries such as Puerto Rico (USA), Iceland, Scotland (GB) and Spain.
