Hello, my name is Michelle Urra.

I’m an illustrator and animator currently based in Cologne, Germany.

Through my work I like to explore and make sense of the world and tell stories that are making up our lives and fantasies. My interests spread across various fields - from cultural subjects, incorporating literature, music and film over to scientific and societal themes. 
 
After completing an Art & Design Foundation at Falmouth University in the UK, I continued my education with a BA (Hons) Illustration at the same university. Ever since graduation in 2019 I have been working as a freelance illustrator, collaborating with other artists and publishers around the world.
