Biography

Maria, 34, Art Director & Motion Designer, daydreamer, human being. I'm passionate about the little things: humming songs, melted cheese, unusual collections, autumn leaves, wooden toys, the noise of finger-sliding across a guitar string. I have a condition called hyperphantasia, which comes very handy in the field I chose to work at. https://www.miazedo.com
