Director Movement Director Choreographer Performer

Hello!
I'm Sandra (she/her) and I am a Mexican multidisciplinary theatre-maker.

My practice investigates movement, music, and words as sensorial elements. I am moved by the exploration of different forms and elements of storytelling from around the world and across languages.

My favourite concept to explore is connection - connection to and within ourselves, to the present moment, to each other...

I am part of a small international artists collective who meet once a year in Europe. We are multidisciplinary creators and teaching artists.

In 2021 I became the director of the performing arts summer program at the American School in Switzerland.

I work alongside my mentor, Cirque du Soleil director Daniele Finzi Pasca. I collaborate and assist during his creations with the renowned Finzi Pasca Company.

I thrive in collaboration, devising and team work and I truly believe in the possibility of changing the world through art.
