In Conversation With Artist and Designer Lucrecia Rey Caro
This month, we’re honored to introduce Lucrecia Rey Caro — an Argentine artist whose work captures the quiet interplay between art, nature, and the senses.
Rooted in intuition, Lucrecia’s practice reveals the subtle magic of everyday life. Her art invites us to slow down, to notice, and to reconnect with the world around us.
From her early beginnings in Córdoba to the travels that continue to shape her path, Lucrecia approaches her work as both a personal exploration and a gentle invitation — into reflection, presence, and rediscovery.
In our conversation, she shares her creative rituals, grounding practices, and the stories woven into her work.
Who are you, in your own words?
I'm a sensitive, curious person drawn to the mystical, passionate about life, and eager to keep discovering and experiencing.
Where do you currently call home, and how does your environment influence your work?
I currently live in Córdoba, Argentina, though my heart feels at home in many other cultures and places. My soul and spirit are travelers.
What has been your journey as an artist?
From a young age, I loved art, museums, books, and crafts. As I got older, I decided to study graphic design, then moved on to art and sculpture. I continued experimenting independently, blending both paths. Today, art is part of my everyday life.
What three words describe you best?
Mystical, sensory, natural.
What does your creative practice look like?
I’m not someone who enjoys following a strict routine. I create new things when I feel connected to inspiration and the creative flow.
Where do you find inspiration for your pieces?
My senses inspire me, but my biggest source is nature. Stepping into nature clears my mind, reconnects me with what’s real, and brings me peace.
Are there any rituals or routines that help you get into a creative mindset?
Spending time in nature and traveling are essential for me.
How do you decide which projects or collaborations to take on?
I like working on projects that align with my values, where I feel we can create a positive atmosphere, support each other, and achieve a meaningful outcome together.
What advice would you give to artists who want to share their work with a larger audience or begin selling?
For me, it’s invaluable to start from the bottom, learning every day, climbing step-by-step, and achieving results through humility and hard work.
Where do you work from, and what does your desk/studio/workspace look like?
My home is my temple—a phrase I love. Right now, I work from home, so it needs to feel like an extension of myself, a comfortable and inspiring place. I also travel with my laptop and brushes, so my studio goes wherever I go.
What does a typical day in your studio look like?
I like to start the day early and calmly, meditating, having a nice tea while I open my computer, and catching up on emails before fully immersing in work. I enjoy maintaining calm and order so that this energy lasts throughout the day. Sometimes, I take breaks in between projects to keep the day fun and less monotonous.
When do you feel most yourself? What brings you joy?
I feel most myself when I create art and express myself freely through my work. Traveling, experiencing other cultures and people, making real connections, deep conversations, self-discovery, and expanding my consciousness, energy, and nature all bring me joy.
How do you stay grounded?
I stay grounded by connecting with myself, taking quiet moments to listen, reflect, and take care of myself. I love spending time alone in peace, taking my time, and truly enjoying my own company.
What is something you hope to inspire in others through your work?
I hope to inspire others to be true to themselves, to follow their own paths, and to embrace their unique journey.
What's next for you?
I have many new art projects coming up that will be visible on my social media throughout the new year. A fresh beginning full of creativity.
