Mission & Vision
Embroidering the magic of science
We are all stardust.
Scientifically, every element within us originated in a star millions of years ago. Add to that the fact that we live in a microscopic corner of the universe, that our lives last just a breath on a cosmic scale, and that life itself is an improbable outcome of nature—and you realize this: we are a miracle.
Science tells us the odds of our existence: 1 in 400 quadrillion. That’s the chance each of us has to be here. Just one shot.
We are an extraordinary outcome of the cosmos.
This extraordinary chance to live is truly one of a kind.
When I gaze up at the night sky, I feel the vastness. That sense of infinity, the sheer complexity of what’s out there, puts everything into perspective. My problems, my endless to-do lists—they shrink. The noise of daily life quiets. In that silence, I’m reminded: our concerns, as real as they feel, are fleeting compared to the immensity of the sky.
That perspective gives me clarity and strength. It dissolves negativity. It brings back hope and fuels the creative energy I need to move forward with purpose.
Watching the stars grounds me in what matters.
It’s not material things. It’s connection. It’s expression. It’s the courage to live—fully and freely—without letting anyone hold you back. As if it were your last day on Earth.
It’s no secret: I love science.
Curiosity has always been my engine, a deep desire to know, to connect the dots, to understand what might otherwise seem like magic falling from the sky. Science gives me clarity, structure, and control. It helps me uncover the finally-maybe-not-so-magical phenomena, and channel those insights into art.
Through my embroidery, I distill these discoveries into beauty and emotion—revealing the true magic of reality. The wonder of everything surrounding our existence.
Creating is how I share that magic with you.
Through the mathematical-to-the-millimeter precision of my scientific lens, I show how even the simplest things can be breathtaking—if we only pause long enough to notice. That’s why my embroidered art is my gift of that magic to you: a reminder to stay true to who you are, to live boldly, and to embrace this once-in-a-lifetime chance.
This is my mission:
To empower you to express yourself freely. To take full responsibility for your own life. To live intentionally and courageously through creativity, self-expression and that touch of magic that makes our lives shine bright. To choose to live life despite what others think. To honor your truest self—and let that brilliance shine outward.
Embroidery is my way of aligning my creative power with yours.
Together, we create something as unique as you are.
A possibility in 1 in 400 quadrillion.
Welcome to my embroidery universe.
Welcome to Delta V Créations.
Meet the Artist
Hi! I’m Laura S. Urbina, a Spanish aerospace engineer PhD turned embroidery artist, now based in southern France.
I’ve always had a passion for both science and art. Though I initially pursued the “secure” path of engineering, the absence of the creative spark that truly drives me weighed heavily on my heart. I felt disconnected from my true self and my core values.
Finding the courage to change my life’s trajectory, I trained in embroidery art at École Lesage and Studio Eyral, eventually founding Delta V Creations—my own studio (or lab, as I like to call it).
Here, I combine my scientific perspective with the precision of embroidery, focusing on the geometric beauty and the almost-magical workings that surround us. It’s about uncovering the hidden beauty that exists when we take the time to truly observe.
Sharing knowledge is a core value of mine, so I also create educational content to help others rediscover joy and mindfulness through embroidery. I offer a meditative space where they can slow down, reconnect with what matters most, and express themselves through the delicate art of embroidery—a true bubble of freedom.
I invite you to join me on this creative journey and discover the beauty of embroidery for yourself.
The Delta V embroidery studio
Delta V Creations is the name of my embroidery studio—or as I like to call it, my creative laboratory.
“Delta V” is a term from the aerospace world, represented as ∆v. It describes the total change in velocity that allows a satellite to shift orbits, charting a new trajectory.
For me, Delta V symbolizes my own change in trajectory—from the structured world of aerospace to the limitless universe of artistic expression. It’s my personal Delta V manoeuvre, aligning my life with my deepest values.
But the journey doesn’t stop there. My creations are designed to give you that same energy boost. Thanks to your incredible feedback, I’ve named it the “wow! effect”: a surge of joy and confidence that radiates outward.
That’s what I call a Delta V.
Your Delta V.
Artistic Approach
Unleashing Creative Power Through Precision and Intuition
The Spark
Every creation begins with a predefined trajectory sparked by an image, material, theme, or scientific wonder that captures my imagination.
Whether drawn from the underlying mathematics of the universe or the magical elegance of nature, each idea is shaped by my desire to create balance, visual harmony, and a naturally pleasing “wow” effect.
This is why geometry, with its magical balance and harmony, deeply inspires my work.
The Blueprint
The process unfolds with a freehand sketch—an essential step to define the visual balance of the piece, its proportions and the key elements, or what I call the “hero” of the design.
Harmony in my compositions is achieved through careful arrangement, guided by the golden ratio (also known as the phi number), a natural principle that exists in the world around us.
The Alchemy
The visual harmony of my pieces depends on a balanced choice of colors and materials.
A pivotal step in every creation where I delicately blend hues, threads and crystals to evoke emotion and elegance.
Gold often plays a vital role in my creations, a nod to the golden ratio and the timeless influence it represents.
Transfer to the Digital Orbit
Once the sketch takes form, I bring it into the digital universe, redefining the boundaries of traditional embroidery norms.
Here, I refine every detail, ensuring that every detail of my embroidery design is accurate to the millimeter—because, as an engineer, precision is in my DNA.
The Magic
It is at the embroidery frame where precision and intuition intertwine.
I make intuitive adjustments to the colors and materials as the piece comes together, breathing life into the design.
And that’s when the magic happens.
The result is more than an artwork—it’s a celebration of beauty, precision, and creative freedom, with that guaranteed “wow!” factor.
