Biography

My name is Florencia Carrasco, but I'm known through my work as Flo Nutopia, which is also the name of my clothing brand. I was born in Buenos Aires, specifically in Florencio Varela. I lived for 8 years in the city of La Plata, where I pursued my studies at the School of Theatre, graduating with a Technical Degree in Theatre Set and Costume Design (2019). I also took advanced costume courses at Espacio Buenos Aires (CABA, 2017) and at the art school of the Teatro Argentino (La Plata, 2017), as well as Fashion Production at Plushlamour (CABA, 2020). I completed up to the third year of the Fine Arts program at the Faculty of Arts in La Plata. During those years, I developed professionally by participating in various music videos, thesis films, short films, and plays as an art director and costume designer. My most notable works include "Algo que pasó en año nuevo" (Something That Happened on New Year's Eve) (2022) directed by Jorge Pinarello, where I designed and created the costumes. It premiered at the Mar del Plata Film Festival of the same year.
