Hello! My name is Isis and I am an alumni from The Accademia di Belle Arti di Firenze. While living in Florence, Italy I got to experience amazing food, make friends, learn about Italian culture. I also got the opportunity to study fine arts at an Italian academy which was an amazing experience because I was able to truly dive into Italian culture and learn about the different perspectives that are unique to Italian students. Below are pictures from a field trip with my class and a sculpting studio from one of the locals I met.
