About this exposition

I am an artist-researcher working on the refinement of my language. As a Mexican choreographer, the search for harmony has been intuitively present for a long time in my personal and artistic life, however, there was a gap between my rational and spiritual motivations and the understanding of its origin, as well as the intuitive understanding of space that guided my creative work. Through time and practical experience, I came to develop my own tools and the integration of visual metaphors and gestures to create movement material. However, the motivation and intuitive processes that led me to make specific choreographic choices continued to be a mystery. I surrendered to what my body and intuition knew, and I reconnected, re-discovered with my ancient Mexican roots: a very scientific, naturalistic, and understanding of the universe based on the understanding of harmony as the balance between opposites. A geometrical manifestation of the duality of the universe. I work in an abstract and physically universal way, where intangible subjects as harmony and love manifest using contrast and spatial oppositions. I felt the urge to explore meticulously what harmony represents in my work, embracing my natural visual and spatial tendency to understand the universe. I this research I created and refined methods for the generation of movement material inspired in the principles of harmony.
