Performance Art & Video Integration
I have collaborated with artists across various mediums, including videography, to create multimedia projects that merge photography with performance art. By incorporating my background in theatrical acting and fine arts, I have been able to produce dynamic, visually captivating videos that enhance storytelling. These collaborations with musicians, actors, and other visual artists have allowed me to explore new dimensions of visual expression, seamlessly integrating videography into my broader creative practice.

Living My Wholeness, I Become Complete
An artistic short video clip themed around Women Empowerment: Living My Wholeness, I Become Complete.
Created in collaboration with a fine arts and performance artist, this video highlights the free expression and empowerment of women, set to a captivating soundtrack by Dianna Lopez – NERVES.
Using contre-jour lighting, I play with light and shadow to underline the mystery of the soul and the beauty of the female form. The narrative unfolds from a timid expression – depicted through contre-jour scenes where the woman begins to know and embrace herself and her wholeness – to scenes in full light, where her inner and outer expressions gradually evolve. This journey leads to a more tumultuous existence, culminating in a reunion with the sea.
The sea, a vast expanse symbolizing infinity, also reflects the completeness of her expression and being.
She is the sea; she is her emotions; she is the inner manifestation of herself in this world.
Sed – Flores de cactus
A short looping video created for a song performed by Andrea Guevara, a talented singer and songwriter.
The video portrays the imprisonment of a soul yearning to break free – a thirst that no one can satisfy. Drawing inspiration from cacti, which give birth to the most beautiful flowers and thrive in the most arid conditions, the video uses the character’s reflection in a window to symbolize the desire to be free, to be seen, and to be acknowledged, ready to show the beauty of their soul.
The city lights in the background represent the wider world – a place where the thirst for recognition and nourishment might lead to happiness and an outburst of self-expression.
Self Exploration
A conceptual video clip exploring the passage of time and the transient nature of emotions and feelings, carried like the wind. The playful movement of curtains symbolizes feelings evolving through time, shifting states, and generating new emotions.
The wind blowing through the curtains serves as the leitmotif, creating a bridge between feelings and emotions. Feelings are conscious interpretations or perceptions of emotions, shaped by personal experiences and beliefs, while emotions are automatic physiological responses triggered by specific stimuli.
The curtains also reflect the changing states of being, further emphasized by the body language and positioning of the character. This concept delves into the conditions and external factors that influence human emotions and, ultimately, their resulting feelings.
