Screen Notes & Mood Archives

Films That Linger

A living notebook of my film obsessions, spanning avant-garde gems, popcorn favorites, cinematic masterpieces, and experimental oddities. It's a mix of memory, mood, and moving image. These are the stories that stuck, stirred, and resurfaced through the years. This archive isn’t just a record. It’s a source of transformation, continuously reshaping my vision in art and design.

Recently Watched: Documentaries & Films

A personal index of short clips, movies, films, and documentaries I’ve recently watched and been inspired by. From digital archives, late-night screenings to festival premieres, and social media videos, each entry marks a moment of cinematic discovery, across formats, platforms, and places.

El éxito no tiene sabor ni olor, y cuando te acostumbras es como si no existiera. (English:”Success has no taste or smell, and when you get used to it, it’s as if it didn’t exist.)

—Huma Rojo

One of the iconic phrases spoken by Huma Rojo, a prominent character in Pedro Almodóvar’s film All About My Mother (Todo sobre mi madre), 1999.

I am putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever hope to do.

—HAL 9000

One of the iconic lines delivered by HAL 9000, a fictional artificial intelligence character and the main antagonist in Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

Jewelry is priceless, a great investment when you buy it at Graff or Van Cleef until you’re desperate for money and forced to sell, and then it seems you can’t give it away.

—Jasmine French

One of the iconic lines delivered by Jasmine French, a central character in Woody Allen’s 2013 film Blue Jasmine.

These movie covers were reconceptualized and reimagined as part of my personal exploration into visual storytelling, borrowing iconic imagery from each film but reshaping it with a fresh, nuanced perspective.

"..O a me, sceso dal trono dell'altro Paradiso.."

Opera Reimagined: Turandot & Butterfly

These two collages reimagine the original posters for Turandot and Madama Butterfly.One reconceptualizes the iconic 1926 poster created for the premiere of Giacomo Puccini’s Turandot at Teatro alla Scala, while the other revisits the 1904 world‑premiere poster of Madama Butterfly. Both originals were designed by Italian artist Leopoldo Metlicovitz. Through this new perspective, the collages breathe fresh life into the historic works, while expressing my admiration for the operas and their poster design.

Ceramics

This design practice embraces the beauty of imperfection and impermanence, where handcrafted ceramics merge function and form, guided by the timeless philosophy of Wabi-sabi.

Collage

This collection explores collage as both physical and digital practice, layering materials, textures, and imagery into visually dynamic compositions.

Drawing

This collection represents years of developing drawing skills across a diverse range of styles and subjects.

Photography

This collection moves through cityscapes and decisive moments, urban landscaped, staged design, and elusive portraits, captured in both 35mm negatives and digital light. Each image holds a trace of time, suspended between realism and reverie.

Terrariums

I’ve been making terrariums for years—mini gardens that started as a hobby and grew into a dream of designing real, expansive landscapes. Most of them reflect the Wabi-sabi philosophy, embracing imperfection and change.

Exhibitions

My exhibitions offer more than design. They’re immersive experiences where social, cultural, and environmental issues take shape through multidisciplinary work. Each show brings my practice to life beyond the screen, inviting reflection, dialogue, and connection.
