Izabel Menezes is a graphic designer and sound artist based in São Paulo, Brazil. Holding a Bachelor in Graphic Design, a Technology Degree in Music Production, and a MA in Sound Studies and Sonic Arts (Berlin University of the Arts), she pursues the notion that music and design - rather than two isolated forms of art - interact in a sensorial combination. Her professional experience and educational background have been characterized by an interdisciplinary environment and have put her in close contact with contemporary artistic and creative practices.
