“The different customs and rituals of Peru shaped me into who I am. With my project, I plan to do research on different regions to explore the diverse cultures and heritage of my country and portray them in illustrations.”
Meet Mar
Marcia Sifuentes (she/her) is a visual artist based in Lima, Peru. Marcia studied graphic design at the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru, and has been working on design, animation, and illustration projects for the past four years. Her work is inspired by nature, the ocean, and Peruvian heritage, as well as memories and experiences with her parents and family.
Growing up in Peru, Marcia learned about the value of traditions and respect for nature. Her project for the Adobe Stock Artist Development Fund is intended to shed new light on her country’s distinct culture, customs, and beliefs. She is seeking to focus on the role of women, who represent wisdom and knowledge, and are responsible for sharing stories and rituals of her ancestors. Marcia would also like to explore the connection of nature to the Peruvian culture and make more people aware of their close relationship. “The different customs and rituals of Peru shaped me into who I am,” she says. “With my project, I plan to do research on different regions to explore the diverse cultures and heritage of my country and portray them in illustrations.”
