I grew up in a small town in Mexico called Actopan where I was surrounded by powerful women who taught me a lot. I remember when I was younger and discovered the power to create things, and with the encouragement of these women that power became something I could practice regularly. After graduating from high school, I moved to Mexico City to enroll in the Industrial Design program at CENTRO de Diseño, Cine y Televisión (Design, Film and Television). This higher education institution is located in one of the busiest avenues in the city and is where I found the freedom to express myself through materials. After graduating from college I worked in a project called “Cuerpa” (August 2022-June 2023). The word “Cuerpa” comes from the word “cuerpo,” which means ”body,” but with a female gender designation. This project is based on the experiences of Mexican women about how their bodies grow and how they describe their bodies having different shapes and textures. The “Cuerpa” project captures a range of emotions, which is what I love the most about it. When I completed the project I realized that what I like about creating is the possibility of making people feel something with the result.
