After graduating, Iya explored various roles in the creative industry, including working as an artist’s assistant and a graphic designer. These experiences shaped her artistic perspective and ultimately inspired her to embark on a career as an independent artist. Today, she works across mediums, creating acrylic paintings, oil paintings, and digital art. Her versatile portfolio includes canvas pieces, social media visuals, textile patterns, and product illustrations.

IYA’s work is deeply influenced by her love for animals, nature, fashion, dolls, and vintage objects. These elements frequently appear in her art, helping her craft vibrant, pop art-inspired compositions with a surrealist touch. Each piece tells a story, often reflecting themes like festivals, childhood memories, or social issues.

Using Adobe Photoshop, IYA creates striking textures and vivid colors. She hopes her art sparks humor and dark comedy, encouraging viewers to value and support artists.
