I am Lorena Zapiain, a Melbourne-based communication designer with a passion for art, creativity, kindness and lollies - especially the sour kind.

 

Since I was a kid, I've been fascinated by the idea of seeing the world through different eyes and giving people an equal voice. Therefore, I enjoy working with individuals who are eager to actively contribute to a world with a brighter future.

 

While I’ve had a varied career spanning everything from planning Ministerial visits to designing a giant football for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, more recently I was a production assistant and audio describer for ~~~~~ “...derelict in uncharted space...”, as part of 2023 Melbourne Fringe. I spent six years at the Australian Embassy in Mexico working in social media, event coordination and arts management. I have also been a freelance designer, illustrator, and video editor on projects that have allowed me to explore art, inclusion and accessibility from an artistic lens.

 

I've had the honour and privilege of working with wonderfully skillful people, from whom I have learned so much. And I just hope to keep working on projects that make art and culture more accessible and inclusive for all.
