Biography
Born in Seville, Irene Infantes came to London in 2010 to study textile design at Central Saint Martins. While there, she was asked to create a print collection for Anthropologie and soon after received a commission form the French ceramics company Legle. A Textprint award in 2016 led her to exhibit at London Design Festival, where Christopher Farr first saw her work. Infantes’ creative practice is steered by curiosity, with influences ranging from her own ancestry to the symbolism of colour.
