Alright, let's see how to start this...
I approach to performing arts from various angles, maybe one day I'll stick to just one thing, but for now, here's a bit of my palette:
I am an actor specialized in physical theater (Institut del Teatre, Barcelona 2015) and visual theater (Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst, Stuttgart 2017). This often leads me to be part of creative processes where boundaries blur, and I find myself acting, building, and choreographing. So, I do a bit of everything in this realm.
Within my work, I also greatly enjoy the roles of assistant director and movement director (choreography applied to theater).
Additionally, I handle the production of some of the artistic projects I participate in.
In Barcelona, I am part of the team of El Pumarejo, and aside from doing many varied tasks due to the precarious nature of the cultural sector in Spain, I also coordinate the space La Mansió, dedicated to movement and performing arts.
In 2015, I went to study in Germany where I lived until 2019. Currently, I mostly work there.
Some of the projects:
AGENTUR PUNCH since 2017
