Gabi Goitía holds a degree in anthropology with a specialization in archaeology from the National University of La Plata in Argentina. She began exploring the textile world in 2013 and since then has developed a career path that is 100% dedicated to embroidery, later bringing illustration into the mix. She defines herself as "the anthropologist who illustrates and embroiders" and her main source of inspiration is nature, as demonstrated by the workshop she founded: Tejiendo raíces.
Cofounder of the embroidery club of Argentina, she also teaches classes and workshops to share knowledge with others, a process she is passionate about. She is currently dedicated to creating illustrations using needle and thread as well as watercolor and digital media.
