Biography
Kamy Aquilina
Kamy Aquilina

My art works are based on different personal journeys using the visual narrative, multi-sensory art, space and colour. Being part of a few collaborative projects and exhibitions have helped me build confidence in different ways I can use the camera, drawing, painting, photography in general and ultimately play around with mixed media. It also allowed me to have a greater reach by participating in multiple events simultaneously through shared efforts. These past few years, I was also experimenting with multi sensorial art. I am always eager to learn new techniques and challenge myself to work outside of my comfort zone.

Kamy Aquilina (b.1989) is a Fine Artist and art educator based in Malta, graduated with a B.A. Hons Degree in Fine Arts. She participated in different collaborative art projects, festivals, and art exhibitions, both locally and abroad. Her artworks are based on different personal journeys using the visual narrative, multi-sensory art, space, and colour while often using photography as a starting point.  Currently, Kamy is working on her upcoming solo exhibition.
