Headshot Photography
Founders of Latin American Theatre in NYC
This a project I developed during my stay in the States,
and it seeks to give recognition to the founders of Latin American Theatre in New York City.
This project has been created together with actress Natalia Miranda-Guzman, and it consists of a photographic exhibition, a pocket book in English and Spanish and a publication of the full length interviews. In this project we seek to unveil the visual memory behind the faces of each of these great figures in the world of art, their experiences and their valuable inner world.
A headshot is a photographic portrait that actors use as a marketing tool or self-branding material. Using this portrait as a media and the question of what is your first memory related to theatre as a starting point, we created this photobook of interviews about the founders of Latin American theatre in NYC.

"No soy un “actor accidental”, siempre quise ser un actor, estar en el
negocio de una forma u otra. Me recuerda cuando era niño y mi tía me dijo
que mi primo tocaría guitarra y estaría en la radio, en la que en ese
entonces era la National Public Radio; entonces recuerdo que moví el
mueble que estaba frente al radio y busqué a mi primo dentro del
altoparlante; no comprendía el concepto de cómo podía estar ahí, y yo
quería estar ahí. Ese es uno de mis primeros recuerdos queriendo estar en el teatro."
