I work between scenography and directing, treating space as an active force that shapes narrative, perception and behavior.
My practice focuses on building performative environments rather than static sets — spaces that evolve, destabilize and engage the audience physically and psychologically.
Working across Mexico, Japan and Europe, I develop spatial strategies that move beyond representation and operate as systems of meaning.
Sustainability is not an aesthetic choice in my work, but a structural condition: scenography must persist, transform and exist beyond the moment of performance.
I am interested in what happens to scenography after the performance ends.
