About

I am a multidisciplinary filmmaker and visual artist from Mexico City, specializing in AI filmmaking, video art, and experimental storytelling. I merge traditional filmmaking with emerging AI technologies to craft immersive, emotionally charged visual experiences.

As the founder of Cine Soma in Jaffa, I foster a community of emerging filmmakers through screenings and live Q&A sessions. My recent work includes video art installations at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem, where I blended projection-based visuals with AI-assisted imagery to expand the narrative space of the artwork.
