TSIPEKUA 2022

Assistant Scenic Designer

During the Day of the Dead celebration, CalArts joined in the festivities for a week, with students coming together to commemorate lost loved ones and illuminate the stories of characters that emerged during immersive theater performances. As an assistant scenic designer, I took charge of various aspects of the event, including crafting decorations and creating my own installation design inspired by the ongoing issue of femicides in Mexico. Additionally, I had the privilege of being part of the inaugural group of students to paint the iconic blue wall at CalArts.
