biography (Viña del Mar, Chile. 37 years old) Chilean-spanish Cultural manager and artistic producer.

Inter and transdisciplinary artist. Performer, dancer, dance teacher, transpersonal guide and communicator.

In 2003 he began his studies of Psychology at the University of Valparaíso, while at the same time he began his studies of classical, modern and contemporary dance in the same region. Then, he traveled to Santiago to study dance at the Universidad Academia Humanismo Cristiano (UAHC) in Santiago de Chile, where he graduated as a choreographer. He has complemented his artistic, educational, social and political practice with self-didactic education and also through artistic residencies, workshops, laboratories, circles, forums, conversations, work tables and trainings with artists and craftsmen from different experiential areas and cultures.

His path goes through contemporary dance, performance, dance-performance, living arts, composition in real time, Tai Chi, Kung Fu Shaolin, psychology, philosophy, astrology, music, audiovisual, radio, digital arts, creation via telepresence, hacking-art and hand weaving. His experience includes research, creative processes, multidisciplinary projects and presentations in Chile, Argentina, France, Belgium, Spain, Sweden and Germany. He has walked by the spiritual pathway since 20 years ago, outside every religion. Since the last 8 years he goes inside the shamanism practices and indigenous knowledge and culture, receiving the legacy of others masters of this area from Chile, Argentina, Colombia, Brazil, México, France and Sweden.

In 2009, during his fourth year of studies at the UAHC, he won the chilean government funds for the creation of "Los Hombres No" (“Not the men”) premiered at the Ex-Centro Coreográfico Matta Oriente in 2010. Since then he has been interested in the interdisciplinary crossing, the reflection of the limits between artist/public and art/life, the encounter with different body dialects and activism around gender and diversity themes.

The 2012 travels to France where he exchanges with various artists from the European scene, continues his creative-scenic work and delves into contemporary technique, contactimprovisation, body-mind centering, intuitive movement and oriental practices such as Tai Chi, Chi Kung, yoga and meditation. Back in Chile, the project "TEJER, una danza madre" (“Weave, un mother dance”) was born, which has been financed by the Ministry of Cultures and Arts of Chile to be premiered at the 7th Choreographic Encounter in Sala Arrau of the Municipal Theatre of Santiago in 2018; also the same year he is elected to be resident in "NAVE", one of the most important art creation centers and residences of Ibero-America located in Santiago, as a representative of his native region. Here, he studies with renowned artists from the current international scene. In 2019 he is funded by the UAHC for the development of his third version of this project, this time around the Mapuche culture (indigenous people). He is awarded with scholarship by the same University to develop a master degree in cultural management with a mention in artistic production and socioculture. This same year he develops the project "hombres que bailan" (“men who dance”) that promotes the meeting between men through dance for the self-knowledge and

reconfiguration of masculinities. He also focuses his research on the decolonization of art, the body and the unconsciousness, the deconstruction of patriarchal legacy, the environmental awareness and the rituality carrying out workshops and laboratories of scenic creation, body language and ritual ceremonies.

In parallel and during his 15 years of experience, he has developed in the field of cultural management and creative production of artistic projects, as well as independent cultural manager and collaborating with Foundations around Lgbtiq+ themes of Santiago de Chile. As a result of the global contingency, he decides to emigrate again from Chile to continue his creative work, developing a virtual project where he shares his knowledge of cultural management for independent artists and therapists from Latin America and Spain.

He is also invited to Uppsala (Sweden) to study practices for the development of human potential with Marisol Hume, one of the most recognized masters in this area. He is also invited to Gothenburg to assist in the production and choreographic assistance for the dance day of the city, for video-dance projects and to share workshops about body decolonization.

Actually, and after 1 year of travel by Europe, he decided to live in Barcelona to continue develop his cultural and artistic project resignifying art and rituality in the urban spaces and cities.
