I’m Ximena, an illustrator currently living in Berlin with my family. My journey with art began early—so early, in fact, that my first canvases were the furniture and walls of my childhood home in Uruguay.

While my professional path led me through Industrial Design, Graphic Design, and Design Research, my heart always remained in the pages of my sketchbooks. I’ve spent my career designing toys and researching systems, but I’ve never stopped thinking up stories and bringing them to life through drawing.

Today, I combine my design rigor with a love for storytelling to create illustrations that I hope will inspire others as much as those early "wall murals" inspired me.

Let’s build a world together.

Whether you have a story that needs a face, a project that needs a spark, or just want to say hola (or hallo!), I’d love to hear from you.
