FILM
My practice as an experimental filmmaker unfolds as a form of poetic and auteur cinema, an exploration of inner landscapes. Through lived experience, I portray the territories of the mind, engaging in a continuous dialogue between my inner voice and the imagined characters that arise within it—figures that act as mirrors, doubles, or emotional projections. My films inhabit that in between space where the real and the imagined blend, giving shape to narratives that emerge from introspection and from the need to understand my own internal states and worlds.

The Third Mind is an animated short film that explores the intersection between identity, space, and memory through the transformative journey of a character who decides to leave their comfort zone and move to another country.
The narrative is articulated through the dialogue between two internal figures: The Intellect, a head that embodies logic and critical thinking; and Intuition, a figure that camouflages with the environment and expresses itself through the body, gestures, and the unconscious.
CHARACTERS
Character I

Intellect

Intuition

Definir la identidad es como intentar encerrar el viento en una caja. No es posible capturarla en las redes del lenguaje sin que algo esencial se escape. Es posible trazar contornos, sugerir formas, nombrar ciertos fragmentos, pero toda definición corre el riesgo de congelar lo que por naturaleza es dinámico, móvil, en transformación constante. La identidad es una interacción entre el yo y el mundo, un proceso, una danza de espejos entre lo que creemos ser, lo que los otros nos devuelven, y lo que aún no sabemos de nosotros mismos. Cualquier intento de definirla es siempre parcial, siempre momentánea, porque implica al mismo tiempo lo íntimo y lo colectivo, lo estable y lo mutable.
Desde una mirada poética, la identidad es como una casa llena de habitaciones, algunas exploradas y otras por descubrir. No se define, se siente, se percibe, entre los espacios y silencios, en los ecos, los pliegues, la certeza y la duda. Se vislumbra en los gestos de un cuerpo, se nutre en las relaciones interpersonales y las experiencias vividas. Es pregunta y mapa que se dibuja mientras se recorre. A veces se pierde y luego se encuentra distinta. A veces duele y a veces libera. Cada definición es apenas un destello fugaz. Quizá lo más honesto es sencillamente habitarla: con sus luces y sombras, con sus contradicciones, sus pérdidas y reencuentros. Y que en cada intento de habitarla, siempre exista la posibilidad de que lo desconocido nos transforme. Entre la piel y el mundo, la identidad teje sus hilos invisibles. Es tanto raíz como horizonte, tanto memoria tallada en la corteza del tiempo como semilla del devenir.
The piece develops a symbolic universe through miniature scenographies, where the character moves through different domestic and emotional spaces in search of new ways of living. In this journey, questions such as the construction of identity, the influence of spaces on our daily practices, and memory as a narrative and resistance force are explored.

Scenario I

Scenario II

Scenario III
El espacio es un organismo vivo que respira junto a nosotros, que muta con nuestros pasos, que memoriza nuestros hábitos, que nos conoce íntimamente. Es un testigo silencioso que nos envuelve y nos interpela: cada pared, cada hueco, cada esquina cuenta una historia. No se limita a contenernos, nos transforma. Todo espacio se despliega como un tablero de juego donde cada movimiento cuenta, donde cada posición redefine las reglas. La arquitectura doma y domestica el espacio y el tiempo para morada del hombre, convierte el mundo físico en un hogar, nos ofrece refugio, pero también nos desafía, nos obliga a despojarnos de nuevas formas, a reinventar la manera en que ocupamos el mundo. A través de nuestras ciudades, de nuestro microcosmos, aprendemos a reconocernos, a recordar quiénes somos y a dónde pertenecemos.
El espacio es un cuerpo que nos contiene, habitarlo no es meramente recorrerlo: es escucharlo, dejarse afectar por su latido, dejarse conmover por su respiración. Cada lugar nos penetra, nos altera, nos reescribe el ritmo. En ese diálogo visceral entre nuestro cuerpo y el cuerpo del entorno, se tejen filamentos invisibles que nos anclan y nos transforman. Así como nuestros órganos guardan memorias celulares de lo vivido, el espacio acumula marcas profundas: grietas, manchas de luz, zonas de silencio. Habitar un espacio es entrar en contacto con su carne invisible hecha de historia y presencia. Al hacerlo, se activa un vínculo orgánico, el espacio comienza a latir con nuestro ritmo, y nosotros adoptamos algo de su cadencia eterna.
In this context of transformation, the short film also addresses contemporary issues such as the difficulty of access to housing. The piece explores the need for rootedness and the individual’s capacity to adapt, proposing a reflection on identity understood as a multiple and constantly evolving process, on space as an active agent in the configuration of the self, and on memory as an essential force capable of narrating our stories and sustaining the subject in the face of instability.










La memoria es una constelación de experiencias que habitan diferentes territorios de nuestra existencia. Es un río subterráneo que fluye simultáneamente por tres cauces: la mente, el cuerpo y el espacio. Cada dimensión de la memoria —mental, corporal y espacial— nos constituye de manera distinta pero complementaria, tejiendo la compleja red que llamamos identidad. En este silencioso diálogo entre lo que pensamos recordar, lo que nuestro cuerpo sabe sin palabras y lo que los espacios han absorbido de nuestro existir, se escribe la memoria de quienes somos.
La mente misma se reconoce como un espacio abstracto: imaginamos recuerdos y memorias dispuestas en habitaciones mentales. Atravesamos el mundo físico y lo impregnamos de significado, lo llenamos de tiempo y de experiencias que se sedimentan como capas geológicas. A través del cuerpo la memoria se ancla en gestos, sonidos, texturas, olores, recorridos, que desencadenan los recuerdos. Es el cuerpo el gran archivista que recuerda cómo se habita un lugar, cómo gira una llave específica, cómo se recorren los tres escalones desiguales sin tropezar, cómo se apropia del espacio y lo convierte en hogar. La memoria es la sustancia etérea que hace habitable el espacio, que lo carga de sentido. Y al mismo tiempo, el espacio se vuelve la gran superficie que conserva nuestro paso por el mundo, piel colectiva donde cada ser deja inscrita su huella antes de desvanecerse.

The Third Mind is the space where the boundaries between the physical and the mental become blurred: a symbolic territory that is generated in the dialogue between reason and intuition, the third consciousness that is born from their encounter. This “third mind” also functions as a metaphor for shared intelligence, a form of knowledge that expands in the collective, in the bond with the other. The piece thus invites us to cultivate inner listening, organised improvisation, and critical thinking as tools for education, transformation, and collective creation.

CREATIVE & ART DIRECTION
As a creative and art director, my work explores narratives across multiple disciplines, from fashion projects to set design. I build a complete conceptual and artistic language around each project through storytelling, guiding the entire process—from defining its identity to production—and reflecting both personal and collective stories.

DIE IMPROVISATION
Storytelling trough space
Die Improvisation is an intimate, narrative practice that explores the possibility of telling stories through space itself. In these miniature environments, architecture, voids, textures, and scale become expressive tools—a language that allows emotions and ideas to manifest without relying on words. What began as minimal interventions soon evolved into small stage-like worlds where stories could unfold: places shaped through fragile materials yet charged with symbolic weight. Each space became a vessel for internal landscapes, imagined narratives, and emotional movements, turning the act of building into a way of inhabiting and giving form to my own experiences.
This practice took on strength during my time in Berlin, at a moment marked by constant moves and the search for a place of my own. Changing homes again and again awakened a deeper need to examine my desires for safety, grounding, and stability—to find a roof and a floor that felt solid, even if only metaphorically. With no fixed studio and no possibility of working with large materials, I began creating from that state of transience and fragility. I collected small fragments of paper from everywhere: chocolate wrappers, sheet music found in flea markets, remnants of notebooks...
Paper became my primary material at the beginning. Through simple gestures—folding, bending, cutting, crumpling—I began shaping volumes that gradually transformed into inhabitable miniature spaces. At first minimalistic, they grew in depth and complexity as I discovered that each construction could host a story. Within them, I imagined characters, movements, atmospheres and inner narratives, allowing these improvised structures to become both a sanctuary and a reflection of my ongoing processes of adaptation and belonging.

SILK
Scarves Collection
Silk is born as a manifesto of resistance and radical tenderness, a form of spiritual anarchy, a declaration of freedom that rises against oppression and the mental chains imposed on our colonized minds and bodies. This vision materializes in a collection of unique silk scarves.
Each piece embodies a new way of living—a portal into hybrid lifeforms, characters, and emotional landscapes. Through these dreamlike scenarios, a world unfolds from the depths, like a lost memory or one hidden in the layers of the unconscious.
Veiling and unveiling become a language of their own. Silk moves within the tension between light and shadow, where trauma meets care. Darkness becomes fertile ground, a portal for beginnings and a space where light can pierce, revealing hidden textures, traces, and subtle tremors of color. Transformation happens when we allow the shadow to speak and the light to nurture it.

How deep must one dive into the unknown to transform? It is only in the midst of darkness that we encounter the light—where we face our fears in order to overcome them.


Silk is also the result of an ideology.
I care about the world, about women, about global politics. I care about the freedom to choose— to veil or not to veil, to reveal or to conceal. I am interested in contrasts, opposites, and the ways they coexist and complement one another.
Silk emerges from the need to question the traditions that no longer serve us and to reform what must be reimagined. It aligns with anti-fascist, anti-sexist, anti-war, anti-discrimination, anti-racist, and anti-classist ideas. These principles shape the way I think, the way I create, and the way I move through the world.
My collection carries in the core a message— not just an aesthetic— but a set of beliefs. I am a radical, but I am also a peace lover. Silk holds both: the urgency to disrupt and the desire for harmony. There are no pure contrasts, only coexisting truths.

[+] Care instructions
Silk is a delicate fabric and should be washed with care, preferably by hand with cold water and a neutral or special soap for natural fabrics.
Soak the scarf in water, if you find a stain, rub gently with your fingertips in circles to not deform the silk fibres. Do not leave it submerged for a long time, wring it out with water. For drying it is recommended to spread it out in the open air, on a towel or hanging it from a rod, never hang the scarf with tweezers that would deform the fibres irreversibly. Avoid leaving it in the sunlight, as this can fade its colour and shine. If you want to iron it, it is important to do it when it is damp, placing the scarf on its back and with a cloth in between to protect it from direct contact with the iron and the steam.

(S)punk began as a party for Barcelona’s queer community and evolved into House of (S)punk, one of the first LGTBIQ+ record label in the city’s club scene. From its inception and over the course of two years, I worked as the art and creative director responsible for designing the label’s visual identity.
The approach was to move away from the stereotypical dark imagery of techno and club culture, creating instead a bright, fluid space that could represent diversity and its inherent fluidity. My work focused on developing abstract landscapes, digital paintings and animated visuals, emerging from an intimate, dreamlike universe and stemming from the process of translating sound into image.
I generated visuals full of life and dynamism, composed of organic textures, movement, light, and color, exploring a variety of states of dissolution and transformation that broke rigid structures and traditional patterns. The result was a visual language that mirrored the music’s energy while celebrating freedom, expression, and queerness.
