Yellow [hola] permalink
I'm ilithya, a digital artist, creative developer and designer from México, based in Hamburg, Germany.
I freelance as an artist, front-end developer, and visual designer.
As an artist I have a keen interest in illustration, street art, and music. I'm currently exploring new media art technologies ranging from 3DCG, generative art, machine learning, and audio-reactive visuals to create art on the web, installations, ai art, music videos as visualizers, video art, or visual art. I'm interested in creating unusual emotional and captivating visual experiences, which are maybe even interactive.
I recently started dipping my toes into NFT waters — find some of my work in Foundation.
As a designer and developer, I care about:
- Accessibility
- CSS methodologies
- Design systems
- DRY patterns
- Emotional design
- ES6
- GLSL shaders
- Graceful degradation
- IxD
- Pattern libraries
- Performance
- PE
- RWD
- Modular architectures
- Style guides
- Typography
- UX & UI
- WebGL
- Web standards
I had the opportunity to work with big clients like L'Oreal, Hornbach, Weber, Douglas and Stanford University.
I wore different creative hats in the past including photography, media production and graphic design. I have a BA in Marketing, passion for creating the unusual and curiosity for technology. My aspiration has always been to combine these skills to produce memorable outcomes.

What's all about those hands?
I grew up in a school with all kinds of kids, including hearing-impaired ones, up until I was fifteen. We had to learn the sign language alphabet and parts of the language to communicate better with them.
I'm a traveler and have lived in a few countries, so I find it astonishing how sign language crosses barriers that spoken languages don't.
