VIRGINIE MORILLO was born in Switzerland in 1982. She is an artist, designer, creative director and a DJ. VIRGINIE shares a studio with two other artists which lies in a former industrial complex at the West end of the city of Geneva in La Jonction district, a dynamic center that hosts a vibrant interdisciplinary community.

The studio is very spacious, clean and cozy. It feels like one big space even though it’s ‘divided’ in three sections. The shelves are filled with everyday objects, art pieces, books, memorabilia, and fabrics among others. While having her portrait taken for this studio visit, we start talking about her work in the worlds of art, music, cooking and fashion that are all bounded by a strong dedication for textures, materials and techniques. Talking with VIRGINIE is a brilliant web. As she speaks, she connects lines through her travels, residencies, tattoos, material experiments and encounters. VIRGINIE is like a cat, she seems to have several lives.

In the upcoming weeks, VIRGINIE MORILLO will leave Geneva for Mexico, open an online shop and have a few exhibitions, try to catch her online via www.virginiemorillo.com .
