Noe Arata
A course by Noe Arata
Buenos Aires-born Noe Arata inherited her grandmother's interest in crafts at a young age. She studied fashion design at the UBA (University of Buenos Aires) and Baking at the Escuela de Gato Dumas. At this time, paper cutting was merely a hobby, one that gradually grew into a passion and later, her full-time job. Her work is both inspired and characterized by all these experiences.
She says she does what she does "because it's what my body wants" and it is this innate passion that has led her to carry out projects for L'Oréal, Lancôme, Kiehls, Isadora, Brother, Olfa, Rapsodia, Ver, Campari, Yagmour, Natura, Ohlala, Pesqueira, and more. She has also collaborated with event managers on events for MALBA, Cartier, and Calandra.
