Personal Statement

Recently completing my master’s in Science of Architecture at CUNY has significantly broadened my professional scope. My journey in New York City transformed my career, where I expanded my skills as a project manager, graphic designer, and freelance artist. This experience, combined with my practical work in Venezuela and academic achievements, has sharpened my ability to tackle challenging design tasks and foster interdisciplinary collaboration.

Having started with a BA in Architecture from Jose Antonio Paez University in 2015, I quickly moved from theory to practice, leading cultural projects from concept to construction in my homeland. This early professional phase not only earned me an architectural license from the College of Engineers of Venezuela but also a deep understanding of project lifecycles, enhancing my multitasking abilities and attention to detail. I am committed to continuous learning and applying my versatile skills to make a meaningful impact in the design field.

About The Artist

Focused but not limited to editorial illustration, Dilianny’s conceptual artworks can translate simple or complex topics into eye-catching, understandable images for projects ranging from editorials, iconography, murals, web, marketing, apparel, products, and more.

She has always had a lot of passion and interest for art, design, and poetic writing, especially when they go hand in hand with surrealism and pop art. Her bold and colorful creations aim to reflect the influence of these two movements.

Behind some of Dilianny's pieces are flash fictions, which are poetic micro-stories that hint at implying a more extensive narrative to surprise or arouse the public's interest. These narratives allow the viewer to clue in the implicit theme or feeling she wants to express in the visual content.
