Life She was born in 1974 in Argentina. She had learned to be an artist and paint but on canvas.

Her career came to notice when she came to Europe to take a master's degree at the Technical University of Valencia and she became involved in street art. She was introduced to the appeal of murals by Escif who is based in Valencia. He was born in 1997 and his art consists of simple images designed to make the viewer think. Hyuro's first mural on a wall was in 2010.

In 2018 she created a mural in Aberdeen of two fighting nonidentical twins to highlight the political tensions between Scotland and England. The work was part of the Nuart Aberdeen Festival and as usual the faces of the combatants are not on display. Hyuro said that she tried to not show faces in her murals as this left the murals more open for interpretation by the viewer.
