What pieces or projects have you been working on lately?
I recently completed a research diploma in multidisciplinary arts with a literary and photographic essay project titled “Como si mi cuerpo supiera lo que estaba a punto de perder”. Although the final version is ready for print, I’m still working through the last details before beginning production.
What did you learn (or unlearn) while working on it?
The entire process was deeply formative. During the development of my initial project, I experienced one of the most significant losses of my life, reopening old wounds and reminding me that I still have a great deal to reflect on and communicate. That’s how “Como si mi cuerpo supiera lo que estaba a punto de perder” began.
What words, ideas or emotions were going through your head?
I had a broken heart, and I still do, but it’s taking on another, more interesting shape.
Were there any conversations, movies, music, or books that made their way into that work?
Not explicitly, but Nora Ephron, Patti Smith, and Phoebe Waller-Bridge were definitely an influence.
What's been the most difficult thing you've faced recently in your creative process?
I don’t find the process itself difficult; what has truly been hard is having to constantly distance myself from art in order to earn money through jobs I don’t enjoy or identify with, just to sustain my creative projects and studies.
What is your favorite restaurant and what do you recommend we order?
The bistec-and-queso tacos at Tacos Laredo.
¿Si este mes fuera una película, qué título tendría y quién haría el soundtrack?
I’m saying this because I saw the opportunity and decided to take it for the laughs. If You Were a Movie, This Would Be Your Soundtrack, by Sleeping With Sirens.
¿Recomiéndanos uno o más artistas que sigas?
For quite a few years now, I’ve been closely following the work of Miguel Tinoco, who has become one of my favorite creators. As I’ve told him myself, I think that although his work brushes against realism, it never fully lands there. In my reading, it suggests he’s portraying memories not in a melancholic way, but as urgent records that something once happened there.
