Chio Fernández is originally from Málaga, Spain but relocated to London in 2009. From an early age, she was a talented painter and this love of art later progressed also to photography. While studying Civil Engineering in Spain, she made the brave decision to leave her degree and follow her passion. She moved to London where she completed a BA in Photography and Film at the University of Roehampton, graduating in 2014 and becoming a full time freelance photographer.
In 2020, after finding herself with plenty of time in her hands due to the several lockdowns and related working limitations, Chio revisited her passion for painting and her work has become very popular amongst art lovers. Other than attending some classes in her home town of San Pedro de Alcántara when she was 10, she is mainly self-taught. For the past year, she has been creating beautiful colourful abstract paintings of women that are becoming a reflection and celebration of womanhood, female beauty and the challenges we encounter in this world. In less than a year she has already booked her first gallery show in The Depot, London, and her work is showcased in multiple locations across Hertfordshire.
