Myda Iamiceli was born and raised in Miami, Florida where she attended Florida International University and received a Bachelor of Business Administration in Marketing. After living in the New York tri-state area, she returned to Florida, and in 2013 she received her Master of Fine Arts from the University of Florida where she studied graphic design.

Myda has many years experience in the graphic design industry designing annual reports, magazines, posters, brochures, newsletters, direct mail, advertisements and web sites; and loves to letterpress print and make books. She has taught at Santa Fe College, the University of Florida, University of West Georgia, and the University of North Florida.

Myda’s research investigates the immigrant and second-generation American and concepts of identity, hybridity, adaptation, assimilation, memories and belonging. Through visual storytelling, she hopes to gain understanding, cultural empathy and start a dialogue about identity and what it means to be American.

Her more “casual” work celebrates flora and fauna by creating linoleum reduction prints, monoprints, collagraphs and books. Getting away from the computer whenever possible.  🙂
