Architect, photographer and director based in Barcelona. I obtained my Master's degree in architecture at the Berlage Institute in Rotterdam, while collaborating with photographer Francesco Jodice and Multiplicity in Milan. Since 2018 I have been the architect for the Barcelona RockFest Festival, responsible for designing the general masterplan and supervising the preparation of the festival site and the installation of infrastructure components. Additionally, among my works, I directed the documentary "Mal de Caña" (2021), about housing in rural communities inside sugar cane plantations. The film premiered at the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival in the United States and earned recognition at other international festivals, including winning the Prix de Média at the Nouveaux Regards Film Festival in Guadeloupe. My work, which reflects both spatial, design and social concerns, has been published or exhibited in venues such as the National Gallery of Fine Arts in Santo Domingo and the Barcelona Museum of History among others. I’ve also served as a professor and lecturer in architecture and photography at various institutions in Latin America, Asia, and Europe.
