Blog 6: How can my career make the world a better place

Hi everyone, today I will talk about how my career can make the world a better place 🌎❤

Theater or performing arts have always been present in human societies. There has always been a need to express oneself and to create a space for catharsis and reflections. Theatrical design is part of the realization of this space in which new worlds can be created and other perspectives can be shown. 

I believe that from my career I can convey social messages, transmit diverse cultures and express what is happening today,how was the social revolt, the climate crisis or racism, making the viewer generate an opinion and put into conversation the issues addressed in the works. 

Through visual language such as lighting, characterization, costumes or scenery, the viewer is taken on a journey of sensations and emotions, in which every detail has a message and a meaning to discover.

And what do I do in all this process? 

At the moment I'm still learning. I think I still have a long way to go to be a contribution to the world, but I try every day to learn a little more to be able to convey a message consistent with what is happening today and my vision through scenic design.

    I love how theatrical design is like visual subliminal messages, there is always a message!
    That vision you add to it will change someone's world. : )

      we still have to follow the ideas of the director/team and think about who will see the work! but we can still manage to show our point of view.

Blog 4: One of my favorite meals

Hi, today I'm going to talk about one of my favorite foods, vegetable cream. I have always liked creams, cream of lentil, chickpea, tomato, corn, but my favorite is pumpkin and vegetable cream. Although it's like baby food, it's a very tasty and filling dish. Vegetable cream is basically cooked vegetables (potatoes, carrots, pumpkin, peppers, tomatoes, chard, etc), that are mashed and seasoned to taste, you can add olive oil, croutons, a parsley or coriander or mint leaf,  grated cheese and/or pepper.  I love it because it is a very versatile and simple dish. You can mix different vegetables and find the balance between their flavors to create a unique cream.  It is also a healthy dish, which provides nutrients and vitamins to our diet. I didn't take this picture, I got it from the internet because I don't have any pictures of this dish 💬

Blog 2: The reason I chose my career

Hi! Today I will talk about why I study theater design. 💖 When I was a child (about 4 years old) I wanted to be a fashion designer. And a funny fact is that I didn't pronounce designer correctly and said I wanted to be a "diseñora". In fact, it makes me laugh now because my classmates are called "diseñores". When I was growing up I started to want to study biology or environmental engineering because I was doing well in the sciences. But one summer, I went to an acting workshop Summer School  at the Universidad de Chile  and I became aware of this whole world of the arts and its wonderful people. After that experience, I decided that I wanted to study an artistic career, although I had never thought about it before, art has always accompanied me and I think that somehow things happened for me to get to art. I was thinking for a long time that I wanted to study acting, when it's not really my thing because I'm more introverted. So I was talking to my mom...
