Sol Courreges graduated in Graphic Design and Fine Arts from the University of Buenos Aires. She worked in advertising agencies and design studios in Argentina and the United States, where she also obtained a master’s degree in Art. In 1999, she established her own studio, Ideaslocus, in Sitges. In 2009, she founded Artecrearte, with the idea of recycling discarded elements to create accessories, fashion items, and decorations, leaving a mark. She has participated in recycled art exhibitions such as Recicla Madrid (Caixaforum), Mercantic (Sitges), Lab Art (Asturias), Centre Grabrielet (Formentera), and Drap-Art (CCCB and Sala Perill in Barcelona, Instituto Cervantes in Beijing, Shanghai and Tokyo, Re:NEW Festival in Pittsburgh…).

Currently, she combines her creative work with the management of several gallery-stores in Formentera and artivism to reduce plastic pollution in nature, conducting workshops, editing books, organizing exhibitions, and encouraging people to consume less plastic and keep the beaches in her surroundings clean in general.
