“Sueño con instancias de bienestar (poder escribir, leer, articularme en el arte, comer, caminar). Sobre obras futuras: me entusiasma generar entramados de teatro, escritura, neurodivergencia e inteligencia artificial. Recibir esta beca para mí conlleva gran alegría y gratitud, significa una moneda de cambio para negociar finales-transiciones, una suerte de esperanza nueva.”

“I look forward to creating matrix stagings combining escritura acto, guided spectatorship, neurodivergence and live interactions with artificial intelligence. To receive this fellowship means to me a special occasion of joy and gratitude, a suggestion of another way of transacting the (perceived) final frontier, a (sort of) new hope.
