Representación Gráfica por Silvia Alba

Raised in Colombia, Silvia is a Designer/Linguist by trade and has spent the last 10 years telling visual stories and helping people communicate around the world. Whether it is helping the United Nations illustrate messages for Families in countries currently facing war or graphic recording Elon Musk as he announced his plan to take Humans to Mars by 2024, she is constantly looking for ways in which visual imagery can connect people and break language and culture barriers.

More recently, she set up her own non for profit organisation The City is our Playground in order to tackle the integration of marginalised communities in the city via creative projects such as participatory mural painting.
