sélpide is a multidisciplinary artist from Andalucía, Spain, who is cringing after writing this in third person. However, as it's funny to imagine, she's going to keep doing it, and that says a lot about the kind of person she is. Telling stories is the one thing she likes the most in the world. The platforms she uses to do so are the following:
- Music. She is a singer-songwriter (in English and Spanish) and produces all of her songs. They come from three very special places: her bedroom, her heart, and her complete ignorance of the technical-theoretical basics of music. She has released an EP and six singles available on all platforms.
- Writing. She is an author (of prose, scripts and poetry). In April 2022 she published her second novel "Al otro lado del puente" (Ediciones Freya). The first one, "Una canción que nunca acaba," is available for free on Wattpad. She took part in the charity anthology "Feliz Covidad" and is currently working on a feature film script prompted by a platform.
- Audiovisual. She has a degree in Comunicación Audioviusal (Film, TV and Radio), specializing in Film, and holds the extraordinary end-of-degree award for best academic record. She has worked as an Apprentice Assistant for the Direction Department in TIN & TINA (2023, dir. Rubin Stein) and the Production Department in Como Dios manda (TBC, dir. Paz Jiménez). She produces, directs and edits all of her music videos and has an extensive dossier of personal works (short films, documentaries, podcasts ...), most of which are available via her YouTube channel.
*Photography. Although this one should and is encompassed within the audiovisual, it has a page of its own on the website so it's easier to look around.
- Art. She still has it left to call herself an illustrator, but she draws comics, short vignettes, fanarts of stories she likes and scenes of her own. She has been commissioned by brands, designed posters and illustrated book chapter headings. She could do much more. She wrote that last sentence with a pleading glint in her eyes.
You can also find her in almost every social network out there, as well as in foreign corners of the internet that she has invaded (with permission, of course):
