ABOUT
 

Iris Maertens is a graphic designer, illustrator
and graphic facilitator.
She uses a wide range of media and techniques and enjoys

the challenges of all kinds of projects. 

Iris spent her youth unleashing creativity at either the piano
or the drawing table. She studied at the Royal Atheneum of Fine Arts and later completed an MBA in Graphic Design and Web Design
at the Royal University College of Fine Arts in Ghent, Belgium. 

When she started to travel she began drawing, rather than
taking pictures of her adventures. In 2010 she did her first
solo-exhibition of illustration work at the 't Ey culture club,
in Belgium.


Iris went on to work in communications for the environmental NGO Greenpeace International, and it was here she became fascinated
by the power of storytelling in communicating campaigns. For the international storytelling team she illustrated her first children's book, "The Moon Candy Rebellion" written by Brian Fitzgerald.  It was with the great team of storytellers at Greenpeace that she set her first steps into the world of graphic facilitation. 
Iris has been working in graphic facilitation since 2015, she has worked for all kinds of projects in over 25 countries.
