Profile

Princesa Hardcore is an artist and human rights activist for trans people based in Paraguay. “Princesa Hardcore” is also the name of her clothing brand, which transforms fabric scraps and used garments into unique pieces, promoting visibility and diversity within Paraguay’s creative scene. Her work blends design and activism, reflecting her evolution as a designer and creative director while striving to leave an artistic and cultural legacy.

Her project “Renaciendo de La Basura”, a manifesto-runway addressing mass consumption and technology, was one of the winners of Emergentes, an initiative by Fundación Pusineri and Fundación Itaú. She is currently creating a photobook for this project, continuing her fight for sustainability and inclusion.
