    Michelle Dabul

    The Argentine architect and visual artist Michelle Dabul invites us to discover her story, from a formation in architecture to a deeply personal artistic path. Her practice began as self-expression following a profound family event, leading her to explore various workshops, including with artist Sergio Bazán. Unknowingly influenced by Japanese philosophy, she connected with materials like ink and vegetable paper, embracing their fluidity and delicacy. A chance discovery sparked her fascination with fungi—their intricate growth patterns now form the foundation of her work. Through obsessive repetition and the pursuit of perfection within imperfection, she creates mesmerizing pieces that challenge our perception of light, space, and time. Michelle Dabul aspires to continue evolving her practice and sharing her art with the world. *The spoken language in this episode is Spanish. Stay connected on Instagram!

    Josefina Stagnaro

    The Argentine biologist and paper artist Josefina Stagnaro shares with us her journey from her academic background in biology to her transition into art. Her artistic career began when she established a studio in her father's silversmith workshop in San Antonio de Areco, Argentina. Her passion for nature and biology is reflected in her handmade paper sculptures, where each piece showcases her connection to craftsmanship and her observation of animal and plant behavior. In pursuit of anatomical precision, Stagnaro continues to study biology to enrich her art, while deepening her relationship with paper, a material she transforms and breathes new life into. Finally, she talks about her participation in the Awasi Artist Immersion and her collaboration with Aves Argentinas in the Maracaná Project. Her dream is to continue this way, creating art and blending her two passions. *The spoken language in this episode is Spanish. Stay connected on Instagram!

    Nuria du Chêne de Vère

    The Italian-Spanish perfumist Nuria du Chêne de Vère and founder of Atelier Nur invites us into the world of perfumery. She shares her journey—from a childhood shaped by the contrasting scents of nature and fine fragrance, to studying in Grasse, France, and ultimately launching Atelier NUR in 2021. Her exclusive line of 100% Italian-made fragrances transform everyday objects into true works of art. Nuria shares her inspirations, the process of crafting a fragrance, and how each scent tells a story and reflects a person’s essence. She also explores how fragrance connects with other art forms—such as giving a scent to a painting! “Perfumery is one of the finest forms of art. A great fragrance must communicate a sensation, convey an emotion, and create an intimate connection to a moment in life.” - Nuria du Chêne de Vère *The spoken language in this episode is Spanish.
