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.
