I am a Peruvian artist based in Brussels, working at the intersection of circus, performance and visual arts.
I develop a hybrid practice rooted in my Andean cultural heritage, where the body becomes a territory of memory and transformation. My physical language — grounded in aerial rope and balance — extends into video, installation and everyday materials, moving between the stage, public space and the exhibition.
Alongside my circus degree, I pursue a Master's in Visual Arts (ERG) and a teaching certification for upper secondary arts (ERG / St Luc).
