Trix Arts was born in September 2022. But before talking about the brand, here is a little bit of my story:

My name is Bia and I am 22 years old. I´ve never been one who knew exactly what to do with my life. In fact, I am the complete opposite. I was never good at school, althought I´ve always been interested in dance, theater, music and all types of art, school really made me feel like I was never good enough. When I´ve graduated from High School I had no idea of where to go or what to do, so I decided to move to Germany for a few months and tried to see if I could go to college there. I love Germany and this experience taught me a lot, but it wasn´t the place for me. Besides, covid happened…. so I just came back to Brazil. After a couple months I started college for fashion design. Honestly it was not something that made my heart beat faster and awake the fire inside of me, but it was okay. By then I knew already that I wanted to be an artist and I was only studying fashion to get a diploma. But then I´ve learned so much about how bad the fashion industry is for the environment and for some other social factors and THAT made the fire inside of me burn. And just to add to that I was havind sewing lessons, which I fell in love for.

So now that I felt like I was starting to understand my purpose I decided to unite all of the things that made my heart beat faster: drawing and making art in general, susteinability and sewing. I took all of my savings, did as most reserch as I could, cried and had countless breakdowns, found a place to buy natural fiber fabric, build a website, but I had no more money to invest so I bought a VERY OLD and cheap sewing maschine that barely worked and decided to sew them myself (terible idea). I had not enough space, skills or the right material. I cried so many times and I wanted to throw away that maschine. But I am the luckiest girl in the world for having so many amazing people around me that were supporting me in many ways, but mainly with motivation. Summing up, I got 16 t-shirts done (out of the 20 that I was planning) and only my family and friends bought them (but thank God, and thank them, cause that was the best option). Next time I got a little more professional and decided to hire someone to make them for me. I group of women and moms that did an amazing job.

So basically I am a young girl just like any other that has no idea of what she´s doing, but at least I am trying. Trix Arts (inspired by my name Beatriz) is something that i deeply believe in and that I have so much love and care for. Is an idea that came from the bottom of my heart to find a way to create without destroying the planet. To inspire people to be creative and show them that there is still hope for our home, Earth.

This is only the begining of this journey and believe me, it is a slow and hard one, but I know is worth fighting for. To be sustainable in today´s world comes with a lot of challenges, but I hope you can join me in this journey and help to make the world a better place. I still have so much to learn and to improve, but I am also grateful to have gotten to where I am. Thank you so much for being here too! You are important, you can make a difference and I love you!

XOXO- Bia (Trix)
