Mila Canduelas Rios

I am Mila Canduelas Rios, a Bachelor of Arts graduate from Cardiff Metropolitan University in Wales, United Kingdom. I graduated in 2023 with First Class Honours.
During my time at university, I had the chance to explore various artistic techniques and processes, which allowed me to create freely and without limitations. The confinement during the pandemic prompted me to contemplate my professional future. As a result, I decided to return to my studies in adulthood and pursue a career that complements my previous education, particularly one that is also connected to art.

Among my other professions are Fashion Designer (1991), I studied at the Madeleine Vionett Fashion School, as well as Ceramist (2003) at the Carlos Cueto Fernandini Occupational Education Center, both in Lima, Peru.

I am currently based in Cardiff, Wales, UK. Throughout my training as an artist, I have participated in various fairs in Peru and exhibitions in the UK organised by Cardiff Met University, as well as galleries such as Cardiff Made, Jacob’s Gallery, Tŷ Turner House, Llanover Hall, and The Coaltrain Coffee Shop and Gallery. Since 2023, I have been a member of the «Art Life Society Group.»
