ABOUT THE SPEAKERS

Caro Lucero (Sonora, 1989) holds a Master’s degree in Artistic Production from the Autonomous University of the State of Morelos and a Bachelor’s degree in Visual Arts from the National School of Painting, Sculpture, and Engraving ENPEG “La Esmeralda,” where she also teaches. 

Her work focuses on the relationships between pictorial, digital, and traditional languages, developing notions of the imaginary and the ethereal. Through various media, she explores the correspondence between virtual life and the physical world and how these spaces intersect and enrich each other. The use of vivid colors and light creates a sense of artificiality that invites the viewer to explore their own internal landscapes.

Bryan Munguia (Los Angeles, 1998) is an independent curator working with Gameplayarts since 2022. He specializes in curatorial worldbuilding, approaching the exhibition-making process within a theatrical matrix. Currently, he consults on curatorial projects for organizations like CLAYDD, and is the former curator of Aparador LA. He’s deeply interested in trans-American artistic experimentation, organizing projects to bridge artistic scenes of Los Angeles and the Global South.

Our Approach

Game-Making Practice

It's for everyone! We believe that game design and thinking is not limited to "the video game industry." It's a creative point of view that any discipline can use.

LEARN FROM Doing

Our workshops are focused on activities with a majority of time spent on making things.
