About

I’m a multidisciplinary creative specializing in model making, set design, and art direction. While rooted in stop-motion animation, my work spans fashion productions, music videos, installations, graphic campaigns, and photography, blending handcrafted elements with digital techniques.

For eight years, I ran a Buenos Aires-based studio, collaborating with agencies and production companies worldwide. I led projects for brands including IBM, IKEA, Motorola, Coca-Cola, and Nintendo, bringing ideas to life from initial concept to fully built sets. My work blends practical fabrication skills with a broad creative vision.

My recent work includes two landmark stop-motion features: Guillermo del Toro’s Oscar-winning Pinocchio, where I contributed as Senior Model Maker, and Laika Studios’ Wildwood, where over Five years I served as Senior Model Maker, Look Developer, and Set Dresser, helping bring these handcrafted worlds to life.

In addition to professional projects, I develop personal works that explore my passion for miniatures, dioramas, and small-scale sculptures. I have exhibited my art in both solo and collective shows, including the Bienal de Arte Joven de Buenos Aires and Fundación Williams – Premio Arte Joven.
