Margarida Girão
I’ve always been drawn to arts and communication, guided by humanitarian and justice-driven values. My expertise in collage has been applied across editorial and commercial illustration, workshops, events, and community identity projects.
In addition to my collage work, I lead A NEW DAY creative studio, where I integrate design, communication, and creative direction to develop meaningful and impactful projects.
Available for monthly creative direction contracts.
Strategic partner, not just an executing freelancer.
Sempre fui motivada pelas artes e comunicação, guiada por valores humanitários e voltados para a justiça. A minha experiência em colagem tem sido aplicada em ilustração editorial e comercial, workshops, eventos e projetos de identidade comunitária.
Para além do meu trabalho com colagem, sou responsável pelo estúdio criativo A NEW DAY, onde integro design, comunicação e direção criativa para desenvolver projetos significativos e impatantes.
Disponível para contratos mensais de direção criativa.
One of my first collages, created for a school work, 1988/89.
