Lleca Moda Callejera
A brand by Diploma of Graphic Design student; Angelo Jair Leon Yepez
Lleca Moda Callejera is a clothing brand focusing on creative unique artworks for t-shirts
“My motivation is art. While I was traveling in the U.S., I began visiting museums and noticing how fashion was handled in the country. I started to realize that I also had the tools to create graphic art. For years, I worked for private companies, but I felt that I couldn’t let my creativity flow there. That’s why I wanted to create my own business, a space where creation could be freer, and that’s how ‘Lleca’ was born.
I started this business in November 2022. When I came to Australia in April 2023, I had to put it on hold, but once again, I want to resume it, because here I can do what inspires and motivates me, and makes me more authentic. Most importantly, I can be my own boss and work on what I truly love: art”
