Hello!


I’m Melani Liriano, an eyewear enthusiast, art curator, and creative ​strategist based in Miami with a love for travel. My career began as a ​brand consultant, and I've had the privilege of collaborating with ​many incredible brands along the way.


I'm deeply passionate about capturing and showcasing ​contemporary art, as well as sourcing emerging artists and brands ​for concept stores and galleries.


Outside of work, my love for art, fashion, and interior design ​drives me. I have a particular affinity for vintage cars and ​chairs, especially those that showcase exceptional ​craftsmanship and attention to detail. Traveling fuels my ​inspiration and enriches my creative process.

As an independent curator and brand strategist from the Dominican Republic, now based in ​Miami, I focus on capturing the essence of contemporary art. My work showcases the visual ​works of artists from across the United States and abroad, utilizing videography and curated ​exhibitions to highlight emerging talent and cultural identities. Alongside curating exhibitions, I ​work as a buyer for concept stores, sourcing innovative brands and discovering emerging ​artists. My background in developing creative strategies for concept retail stores has deepened ​my expertise at the intersection of art, design, and brand development. Throughout my career, ​I've had the pleasure of working with remarkable brands and galleries including Mifa Gallery, ​MOCA Museum, Mfpen, Perks and Mini, illesteva, ICFF, and many others. Currently, I serve as a ​curator in residence, collaborating with various galleries to explore and present new artistic ​narratives.
