Cultural Production

I am interested in building cultural platforms and opening spaces for other artists to showcase their work and trigger collective processes of knowledge-building. In these projects I explore different  concepts I’m interested in such as memory, territory, migration and collective creation. 

2017 / Interdisciplinary exhibition and public program.

Disarmed Imaginaries was an interdisciplinary art festival about territory,
memory and identity in exile. It was a social laboratory for aesthetic and political participation through arts.

The festival reflected on how exile and migration reflect our personal and collective history, to recognize and heal wounds product of the armed conflict and asylum seeking through the arts. The festival included three day public programming of theater workshops, screenings, and collective gatherings to weave and share stories.

Artworks by Manuela Illera, Live performance by Cristina Osorno and screening of Escapando Fusunga a film by Tuara Paz and Pablo Abril

2012-2015 / International and interdisciplinary Arts Festival

EQNX was an interdisciplinary and international arts festival
that functioned as a platform for pedagogy and experimentation.

Three versions of the festival were held in the city of Bogotá
(2012-2014), Colombia, with a large and diverse participation of
artists, managers, researchers, students, writers, among
others. Its fourth version was international (2015), involving
artists in Berlin, Barcelona and Bogota simoultaneously.

The festival was based on the collective work of all the participants, aiming to open alternative spaces for contemporary cultural, artistic, pedagogical and curatorial practices.

2018 / Public Art Laboratory

Cultural Seedbeds was a project based in collective laboratories to design public space interventions in marginalized districts in downtown Bogota.

It was a workshop and collective research about the cultural
diversity of that territory and was targeted to local leaders and artists who carried out communitary interventions in two public parks of Bogota’s Downtown.

2019 / Musical theatre

Musical theatre production with kids and teens from the rehabilitation programs of Bogota IDIPRON. The project resulted in a play featuring over 40 kids and teenagers who were part of the education process of acting, musical composition and art direction. 

2018 / Large Format Murals

Lead life campaign was a national project held in 2019 to visibilize the legacy of murdered social leaders through workshops and large-scale murals in five Colombian cities.

This was a campaign in favor of human rights, the denaturalization of the conflict, peacebuilding and the promotion of community leadership.
