Was very happy to be the Art Director for this single from my friends at Agatha Thirsty. This song basically narrates the worst hangover ever. Loved the results.

When I got invited to this project I instantly said YES. That was because, Ana, the producer, is someone whom I realy trust so much. The thing was, it was called “Tauromaquia” (spanish for bullfighting), and I thought it was going to be some kind of “politically incorrect” story definding this horrible tradition. I was ready to move back. But I didn’t, I read the script and got the biggest of surprises. Realizing it had “nothing to do” with bullfighting, or at least not in a superficial way, it was a METAPHOR. And I FREAKING LOVED IT! This is the perfect comming of age male story, incluiding the constant toxcitiy they are expected to get over through.
It ended up being one of the most incredible experiencies as an Art Director, I had to create this impossible place where everything happens, and that really put my brains to work and totally loved what we came out with.
This is still in postproduction. Filmed entirely in 16mm.
Totally greatfull whit the people involved and with life.
The beautiful pics where taken by Ana M. Casas.

We are on tour with this beautiful history of the Lolyta Dress Factory, located in downtown Monterrey.
This complex, built in the 50s, is a perfect example of the Modernist Architecture that marked the industrial aesthetics of Monterrey.
This documentary aims to remind us of the richness of the Heritage of Nuevo León and the importance of choosing the restoration and reactivation of functional spaces over the invasion of new natural properties and the gentrification of traditional neighborhoods. It seeks to rescue the industrial architectural memory of this city, which bases its foundations on the solidity of its industry and purchasing power.
