Paula García Castro (C05 (2022-2023))

She has, from a very early age, been recording videos of herself alone at home. Over the years has built up an extensive archive of videos of all kinds. Also from an early age, she has been very interested in the preservation, digitisation and collection of domestic and family material. In 2021 she graduated in Cinematography and Audiovisual Arts at the TAI School of the Arts, where she discovered editing and its expressive value in cinematographic creation. Her end-of-degree thesis examined recorded memory, using some of her own family material (books, letters, photographs, film, etc.) to learn more about her maternal grandmother. She sat on the youth jury of the San Sebastian Film Festival for two years. In 2018 she co-founded Ey, existimos!, an audiovisual feminist collective, through which she will organise the Self-Managing Festival of Emerging Creators in Madrid. During her time in Madrid she also began to develop her musical side. She currently has a strong interest in creating animation, illustrations and digital collages; she has trained in these areas and begun to develop small personal projects.
