Isa Flores

“Isabel Flores, known as La Skimal, an audiovisual creator, has been documenting the most diverse cultures for 17 years, including that of her birthplace, Ibiza. In summer there, and in winter going to the most remote places in the world to transform experiences into documentary stories. As much as being the photographer of Paris Hilton or Idris Elba in Ibiza, she would jump to give photography classes at a Slam in Calcutta or accompany a Mexican shaman to the Wirikuta desert. He has lived in different capitals of the world to create synergies with artists from different disciplines and to be able to incorporate them into his own personal creative process. He has had individual and collective exhibitions around the world, and has participated in renowned festivals such as Format Festival, Experimental Photography or the Festival of Visual Arts in Mexico. In 2019, she was recognized with the Balearic Talent award for her career as a photographer and visual artist.
