Irene Antich is a Costa Rican artist born in 1984. She graduated in graphic design before devoting herself fully to her training as an artist. Her first encounter with figurative painting was in an intensive workshop in Florence, where she discovered how much she wanted to dedicate herself to art. Later she completed her three years of academy in Barcelona, where she currently lives and has her studio. She continues to work on her paintings in addition to teaching drawing and painting classes. Parallel to this, Irene manages a project called Paint 2 Help through which she collaborates with animal shelters through painting. She has exhibited her work collectively in Costa Rica and various parts of Spain, where she was selected as a finalist in the international contest ModPortrait with which she exhibited at the Bantierra Palace in Zaragoza and at the MEAM Museum in Barcelona.
