Mónica Rikić (Barcelona 1986). Electronic artist and creative programmer.

She studied Fine Arts at the University of Barcelona and then studied a Master's degree in Digital Arts at the Pompeu Fabra University, where, in the code and electronics, she discovered a very powerful artistic language in accordance with her creative needs. She is currently finishing a Master’s degree in Contemporary Philosophy at the UOC.

She focuses her work on creative code and electronics, combining them with non-digital objects to create interactive projects often framed as experimental games and robotic installations. Her interest focuses on the social impact of technology. From educational approaches to sociological experiments, her projects propose new ways of interacting with the digital environment around us.
