Transdisciplinary creator, researcher, and lecturer whose practice interweaves art, beekeeping, and the ecological humanities. She is currently a PhD candidate in Art: Production and Research at the Universitat Politècnica de València, supported by the CONAHCYT grant. She holds a Master’s degree in Artistic Creation from the Centro Morelense de las Artes and a Bachelor’s degree in Art History. Her research-creation practice investigates interspecies relations between humans and bees, a connection deeply rooted in her personal history as the daughter of a beekeeper.
She has presented twelve solo exhibitions and has participated in numerous group shows in Mexico, the United States, and Spain. Her work has been recognized by PECDA 2025 and Salón ACME. Recent outcomes of her research-creation include publication in the British journal Seisma Magazine: Arts & Science with the project Beehive Shared Home, and a presentation at the International Congress of Ecological Humanities at Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona. She is the author of Rehabitar la colmena (Universidad Iberoamericana León), the academic essay COLMENA: [self]portrait (Facultad de Artes y Diseño, Universidad Autónoma de México), and co-author of Interspecies Dialogues: Co-creating with Bees (ANIAV – Revista de Investigación en Artes Visuales Universidad Politécnica de Valencia España).
