Natacha Kadhija

I was born in the city of Brasilia-DF(Brazil). Since my childhood I have a genuine interest and affinity with all the manifestations of art, especially visual arts. And the love that I feel about it, with the possibilities of creation continues to grow.
My inspirations are always the freedom of creation that I have with colors and the human behaviour, in my perspective, and I believe that I have influences of old and contemporary schools, mixing everything that I see and I feel, making my art.
Now, I'm exploring new materials and concepts, trying to amplify what I understand as a creation of art. That's what moves an artist: the continuous inspirations!

I started as a self-taught artist, painting and making other related activities in my childhood. With 13 years old I made my first official work, with Unicef, that were illustrations about Human Rights, published later. After that, I continued to create in many fields and decided to make exhibitions and free courses. My first exhibition happened when I was 16 years old.
And I never stopped since this time, also graduating later as a designer (Industrial Design), always making continuous specializations;
