Thinking the city
The call “Pensar la Ciudad” (Thinking the City) called on emerging artists to reflect and dialogue on the contemporary city through their work, offering unique perspectives on their real experiences, research and desires, from a critical awareness. The initiative sought to give voice to visions that offered a new reading of urban landscapes and societies.

His work includes notable exhibitions, such as in El Chico (2021) and Mexico City (2022), where he explored the architecture of Mario Pani. Trained in Interior Architecture and with a master’s degree from Parsons, he has worked on prominent projects, including the renovation of the Convento de San Marcos in León. ‘50% Cotton, 50% Plaster’ explores the coexistence between the intimacy of interior space and urban public space, using clotheslines as a symbol of this connection. The work rescues the tradition of urban clotheslines, reflecting how these elements reveal the daily life and history of generations, especially of women who performed domestic chores. In a context of urban modernisation that often eliminates these vestiges of community, the installation seeks to re-humanise the urban environment, highlighting the evolving role of women and celebrating the diversity and uniqueness of cities.
