CINEMA CINE

A Curiosity to Discover the World Through Visuals Curiosidad para Descubrir el Mundo a Través de lo Visual

“Art is the expression of the artist. Although art lacks a specific figure, it has many ways of being made, which means that the artist shares a vision of how it relates to its environment.” —Diego Ruvalcaba, filmmaker. “El arte es la expresión del artista. Aunque el arte carece de una figura específica, tiene muchas maneras de hacerse, lo que significa que el artista comparte una visión de cómo se relaciona con su entorno”. —Diego Ruvalcaba, cineasta.

“The foundation of my understanding of cinematic art has been experimentation and playing with what I’m doing, feeling that everything I do is first for me and then projected outward. That nourishes me and stimulates me to continue as an audiovisual creator.” “La base de mi entendimiento del arte cinematográfico ha sido la experimentación y jugar con lo que estoy haciendo, sentir que todo lo que hago es primero para mí y luego hacia afuera. Eso me nutre y me estimula a continuar como creador audiovisual”.

Cinema is the last of the arts to be added into the category of fine arts. In some way, cinema synthesizes and concentrates the other arts, since it adds its own elements through technical resources and forms of discourse composition.

Having studied in Visual Arts at Centro Universitario de Arte, Arquitectura y Diseño, the career of Vallarta filmmaker, Diego Ruvalcaba, has stretched eight years, a period during which he has made works based on highlighting the aesthetics of the imperfect.

“In each of my pieces I try to get away from that artificial part of creating a world with a lot of beauty or exquisite perfection. I think that art should be a more natural entity, so I like to humanize cinema and adapt as much as I can to the ecosystem that surrounds me.”

For Ruvalcaba, the natural attributes of Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit, as well as the traditional customs of its residents, have provided many opportunities as a creator and allowed for him to film “from the roots” what it means to live here.

“The things that are done in the cinema must have two important elements: the intention and the truth. I see the truth as having an honest heart that allows us to do organic things to portray the reality in which we live. The intention is to know that what I am doing is going to touch the emotions of those who appreciate it,” concludes Ruvalcaba.

La cinematografía es la última de las artes en ser agregada dentro de la categoría de las bellas artes. De algún modo, el cine sintetiza y concentra a las demás artes, pues añade sus propios elementos a través de recursos técnicos y formas de composición del discurso.

Con estudios en Artes Visuales para la Expresión Plástica en el Centro Universitario de Arte, Arquitectura y Diseño, la trayectoria del cineasta vallartense Diego Ruvalcaba asciende a ocho años, período en el que ha realizado trabajos basados en destacar la estética de lo imperfecto.

“En cada una de mis piezas trato de alejarme de esa parte artificiosa de crear un mundo con mucha belleza y/o exquisita perfección. Yo pienso que el arte debe ser un ente más natural, así que me gusta humanizar el cine y adaptarme tanto como pueda al ecosistema que me rodea cuando levanto imágenes”.

Para Ruvalcaba, las bondades naturales de Puerto Vallarta y Riviera Nayarit, así como las costumbres tradicionales de sus residentes, le han brindado muchas oportunidades como creador y le han permitido filmar desde la raíz para retratar lo que significa vivir aquí.

“Las cosas que se hacen en el cine deben tener dos puntos importantes: la intención y la verdad. Yo veo a la verdad como un corazón honesto que permite hacer cosas orgánicas para retratar la realidad en que vivimos. La intención es saber que lo que estoy haciendo va a tocar los sentimientos de quien la aprecie”, finaliza Ruvalcaba.

WITHIN THE W Punta de Mita resort is Venazú, a restaurant with a name inspired by the ancient Huichol legend of the Blue Deer, which led the tribe to the sacred land of Wirikuta where they first found peyote. Its interior blends modern design, with a patio that offers wide views and a festive Mexican street party vibe.
