Studying plastic art, always was one of my first options. Since I was child, I have abilities for: drawing, painting and constructing objets (handicrafts)
I decided architecture as a first option, soon after I took the PSU exam. I considerer the design and maths as a good mix to create spaces, but sincerely  I did not want to dedicate six o more years to something that does not passionate me.
After that experience, the  feeling for studying was gone, but my parent and closer friends insisted to give it a second chance.
Through basic and secondary school, I made different artistic projects that had a great success at the school. This helped me to take the decision.
In 2014 I get into the plastic career, searching an space to  expand my abilities and create with my hands a new language to communicate.
In the university it can be founded, interesting people, different disciplines and good teachers everything in the same place!!!
In my opinion it is a entertaining and creative career. you can work in many disciplines with different techniques and materials that helps me to make future works.
The people that studying here is very diverse and interesting and it is shows in their works, wich help us to expand our creative field.
