MASTERING AN ELEMENT AS POWERFUL AS FIRE IS AN ART AND IT IS MAXIMIZED BY THOSE WHO CAN MANIPULATE IT AS AN ARTIST TO BLEND IT WITH DANCE TO CREATE MAGIC.

Omar Aguilar Medina, founder and creator of the company Eye Candies PV, combines artists from different disciplines with the unusual talent to be able to perform incredible acts manipulating fire.

With each performer having a distinctive quality, there is not one that is the same as the other. Eye Candies PV features a contemporary and voguing dancer, a circus acrobat, a cyr wheel artist, and a dancer-contortionist (who is Omar himself).

As a gay-queer dancer, Omar understands art as a beautiful vehicle that transforms like fire. "An artist cannot always remain the same, he has to evolve, change, take risks and at the same time let himself be surprised," he explained.

Aguilar is a 27-year-old classical dancer originally from Mexico City. He grew up in Ciudad del Carmen, Campeche. At the age of 17 he went to Mexico City to study dance and was part of the cast of the Mexico City Ballet for four years. At the same time, he collaborated with different dance companies in conjunction with the Philharmonic of the city. He arrived in Puerto Vallarta in 2020 to work in the great show 'Mayahuel' at the Vallarta Theater. After which he joined the last two seasons of the drag queen Karma The Bitch at Act2PV, receiving very good reviews of his work. Deciding to stay in Puerto Vallarta, he started Eye Candies PV. "We distinguish ourselves because

we have sexy dance with fire, and combine it with very sensual costumes, makeup and queer elements,” he said.

Another plus of the show is that it is presented with live music which makes it even more extraordinary and attractive.

"We have a Colombian musician who plays percussion live during the show, that gives it a Latin flavor that makes the show even more unique."

Of course his art is exciting but it is also dangerous, you have to know and understand fire and take into account several other factors - such as the direction of the wind so that it does not go towards your face.

"We prefer to wear as little clothing as possible, both for our safety and for the sensual concept of the project," he explained. "Of course I've had accidents, it's always a risk, you can't be afraid, the show must go on."

Eye Candies PV is a diverse group that has gay, queer and straight artists, whose main drive is to make quality new shows and show great love for their artistic disciplines. Look for them at private parties, hotels or gay villas. You can hire them for your next party, just contact Omar on his social networks. Photographer: Ezequiel lozano
