Living in Europe since 2009, I worked in Spain, France, Italy, and Germany, as a composer, music producer, and arranger collaborating with artists linked to traditional Latin American music. I helped to open new possibilities for innovative sounds, with different groups and artists such as La Gozadera, Nega Lucas, Camdombre Tierra, Chonta Dura, and Sones de Marimba.
In recent years I have began interdisciplinary collaborations with artists in the environments of dance, theater, video, and film.
This has given me the opportunity to explore a new dimension of creative work in which I am interested continuing to deepen and for which I am in permanent look for collaborations.
In 2020 I co-founded the Cistifellea Collective, together with director and media artist Elena Tilli where I actively participate as sound designer and live musician in the performances we create. With Cistifellea I designed work such as Asuntos Humanos (2021), El Silencio No Existe (2020), and Agresion y Dignidad (2022). The work is been presented in Barcelona in public theaters
