Ultimate Santiago de Chile AlcoGuide, 2023

Santiago de Chile is renowned for its vibrant cuisine and rich cultural heritage. However, the primitive mindset of some tourists looking only to travel and drink to excess often overshadows the city's diverse offering. In response to this, my satirical editorial project presents a unique tourist alco guide that navigates the landscape of Chilean nightlife. From checking into your hotel to hangover heading home, this editorial offers detailed information on local traditions and behaviors, as well as a collection of party venues. Presenting itself as the ideal tool for those wishing to immerse themselves in the local party scene, this guide offers an unconventional approach to Santiago's nightlife. Compact, waterproof and extremely useful.

Co(te)lette, 2022

Creating a fictive visual identity for the performance Co(te)lette (2007), we stepped into the realm of feminist discourse concerning the female body and its societal representation as an object of desire. By reconceptualizing it as a "piece of meat" like those seen in butcher shops, we redefined the graphic representation of the performance. Complemented by contradictory but compliant quotes, our aim was to evoke ambivalence in the visuals, prompting reflection on the nuanced and often contradictory perceptions surrounding femininity and objectification. In collaboration with Stavros Gilliamidis.

SENSUS MAG: Art and Science Encounters, 2022

The motivation force of fictive magazine SENSUS magazine came from out of a need to provide a better understanding between art and science. How they interrelate with each other and what are the hidden from us notions of these two areas. By gathering the visions of artists, it becomes possible to create a new visual language that can be seen and understood by everyone, not just scientists.
Both graphic and conceptual aesthetics allow us to rethink the constant interconnection allows us to rethink the constant interconnection of these worlds, their appearance in our daily lives, and how closely they are connected to our society.

A Perfect Society For Unperfect Species, 2021

Exploring the themes of utopia and dystopia, I have created a graphic novel that examines the complex interplay between these contrasting concepts. Following the journey of a protagonist, the story takes place in a city that is supposed to embody utopian ideals, with attractive laws and a seductive exterior. However, as the protagonist delves deeper into this seemingly perfect world, the allure fades, revealing an absurdity and contradiction hidden beneath the surface. This story is a compelling reflection on the blurred line between utopia and dystopia, inviting readers to re-evaluate societal norms and perceptions.

The Shop of Lost Potential, 2024

"The Shop of Lost Potential" explores the notion of pursuing toxic self-improvement through the purchase of wholesome products. The installation emphasizes the persistent struggle against feelings of insufficiency, despite actively investing in self-optimization products. The gap between idealized media messages and an individual's personal journey acts as a reminder of the enduring difficulties in meeting society's expectations, ultimately calling into question the authenticity of consumerist self-improvement pursuits. In collaboration with Jonas Wolter and Adam Chatir.

Forget me, 2024

Forget Me is an installation featuring two pen plotters: one draws with heat-sensitive ink, and the other erases those drawings with a the flame of a candle. They operate together, visually representing the temporary nature of things and the constant passage of time. The installation seeks to question the enduring perception that written words are everlasting. Contrary to this belief, it posits that most written materials are destined to fade into obscurity over time. Using plotters, which operate similarly to printers, this installation diverges from the traditional output of printers. Instead of delivering a permanent outcome, it uses thermochromic ink, activated by heat, to produce a continuous choreography of marks that appear and then vanish.In collaboration with Tibor Udvari.

Thoughts of a Fish, 2020

The series of paintings by Swiss and Amsterdam-based artist Jade McCarrick is a compelling exploration of the idea that human emotions take physical form. Each painting is a living expression of this concept, inviting viewers to reflect on the depths of human experience. Through video, we aim to transport the audience into Jade's world, where emotions manifest as tangible extensions of the self. For the video portfolio showcasing her work, I created a visual universe designed to highlight her paintings. Inspired by the complex interplay of shapes and the significance of color in her art, my aim was to encapsulate the essence of his work.

The Portable Spaces:Remapping Lausanne, 2021

In the vibrant urban milieu that houses half of the world's population, public spaces hold immense sway, dictating the rhythms, activities, and aesthetics of city life. These communal areas, constantly evolving and shaped by the needs and cultures of local communities, form the backbone of a city's infrastructure. Seeking to unravel the visual essence of our own urban landscape, we embarked on a journey to explore the intricate mechanisms and visual motifs that define it.In collaboration with Tickie Bindner.

Hey, I think we need to talk, 2023

Human relationships have long been a subject of exploration, but I wanted to approach it from a different angle. To do this, I configured a break-up chat bot to engage in a dialogue with itself. This unconventional configuration resulted in an absurd, endless conversation between two 'humans' going through a break-up. Using an artificial tool to explore a deeply human subject, the project took on a surreal dimension, offering new insights into the complexities of human interaction. As a result, I made a choose-your-own-adventure book where the aim is to navigate through a rupture, but where each path ultimately leads to a dead end, with no conventional 'happy ending'. This unconventional approach challenges the traditional narratives surrounding relationships, highlighting the cyclical nature of certain emotional experiences.

Deep Society Art, 2023

Based on the most common clichés in the media space, this interactive installation reflects the double reality sold to us by social networks. The fake and artificial side of the "good life" is confronted with the real and depressing aspects of human nature, depending on the viewer's movements and the shot taken. At times, the images are interwoven to underline the interdependence and coexistence of these two worlds.

Reptilian Wildlife Alliance, 2021

By examining Michael Barkun's famous reptilian conspiracy theory, according to which metamorphic reptilian humanoids from the Alpha Draconis star system have infiltrated human society at the highest levels, I investigated the intriguing concept of reptilians among humans. This exploration has led me into the realm of speculative fiction, where I have created a fictional alliance website. The primary objective of this site is to help recognize the supposed presence of reptilian entities living among us. By analyzing their behavior, preferences and physical appearances, the platform serves as a comprehensive resource for identifying these alleged extraterrestrial beings.

My Memory is Fake!!!, 2022

As a young immigrant, many of my cherished childhood memories have begun to fade from my mind. To preserve these fleeting recollections, I engaged in conversation with a Telegram chat bot, recounting my childhood experiences. It generated images based on my descriptions, occasionally resembling the scenes I held in memory. These visuals became the sole remnants of my childhood that I could carry with me into the present day. Installation as a part of collective exhibition 18:15.

Sister Mary Kenneth Keller, 2020

By dedicating my inaugural website to notable women in web development, I shed light on Mary Kenneth Keller, a trailblazer in computer science. Inspired by the quirky charm of religious websites, I embraced their aesthetic for my project. However, mindful of Keller's computing prowess, I integrated a less satirical interface, reflecting her professionalism and expertise in the field.

Photosensitivity Warning: Following Content May Cause Seizures, 2023

Photosensitive epilepsy is a variant of epilepsy in which the affected person produces reactions to light and certain static patterns. Due to a lack of awareness of this disorder, our environment contains many visual triggers that endanger the daily life of a photosensitive person.
In this project, I reproduce in virtual reality the places and elements most harmful to a photosensitive person, illustrating several of these variants. As both a graphic designer and a photosensitive person, I wanted to highlight the lack of awareness of this disease, which leads to visual exclusion. This is driven by the idea that I'll never be able to see my project in its full form.

VR Experience

Villa Gadea, 2023

Many years ago, on trips with my friends, I made a rather crude sketch of this place. However, with the acquisition of some 3D sculpting skills, I felt compelled to recreate this beloved place in a more tangible form. Over time, memories blur and landscapes fade, but through this creative effort, I wanted to preserve the essence of Villa Gadea and the moments shared with my friends.
