Alyssa Bermudez

As a born and bred New Yorker, Alyssa Bermudez’s move to Tasmania led her to discover a limitless wellspring of inspiration in the form of an urban and rural coalescence. Her artistic framework stems from her undergraduate and graduate degree courses at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York where she studied illustration, computer animation and interactive media. Illustration is her main form of communication and memory keeping, and she believes that even the smallest life experiences can be the greatest asset to inspired creations.
