For Paulo Simón García’s Master’s graduation from the Robert Schumann Hochschule Düsseldorf, I developed the stage design for his graduation concert, ‘De mis fiestas, Espíritu, Él¿?’, which took place at the exhibition space The Pool in Düsseldorf. The immersive performance brought together musicians and performers Danielle Muñoz, Natalia Molina, Vicente Moreno, Luis Londoño and Daniel Oetz, with live visuals by Fjodor Gladilin and Flor de Fuego.

The stage design followed the musical concept: an anthropophagic experimentation rooted in tropical imaginaries and an exploration of Latin American experimental music, ritual and performance. Drawing on the spirit of carnival, the space became an environment for collective experience, celebration and transformation, encouraging a continuous search for forms of creativity beyond established aesthetic paradigms.
