Gabriela Jobim

Textile designer, visual artist, and researcher with international experience in the areas of sensory innovation and creativity. I research the relationship between color, emotion, materiality, and human experience, connecting textile science, artistic processes, and creative methodologies.
With advanced training and a professional trajectory between Brazil and Europe, I develop projects that explore materials, surfaces, and sensory chromatic systems, with applications ranging from product design to contemporary art and educational experiences with children and young people.
In art, my production moves between the poetic, the abstract, and the experimental, investigating memory, affections, and visual narratives through textiles, colors, emotions, and feminine symbolic language.
