Cristian Aros Arancibia:   Transdisciplinary artist. Graduated as an actor from the School of Theatre of the Universidad Católica de Chile in 2008; Diploma in Sound Art from the Universidad Católica de Valparaíso in 2021; currently studying for a Master’s Degree in Sound Art at the Universidad de Barcelona.  His development in the professional artistic field is characterized by the permanent search for the transdisciplinary, which has allowed him to work in different roles: performer, stage and audiovisual director, creator of sound universes, composer, guitarist, sound editor, playwright. 

To the present day, he has performed in important stage productions such as the Teatro Nacional Chileno, in 3 readings of the Festival de Dramaturgia Nacional, in the Teatro de la Universidad Católica, on stages in other countries and he has participated in various projects financed by Fondart (funds for artistic creation). He has also directed productions presented at the Sala Jorge Díaz of the Universidad Finis Terrae (Tríptico[ir]relato a tres voces), at the Archivo Andrés Bello de la Universidad de Chile (Laura Bustos), at Teatro del Puente (Macbeth o el viaje del poder and Anatomía de una cabra), at the Sala de Teatro de la Universidad Mayor (Seirén o el canto extraviado).

Likewise, as co-director of the company CAPRA Arte Colectivo, he has developed a search that fuses theatre, audiovisual and music, which has led to the creation of an experimental rock band called La Cabra Voladora, whose work was supported by a Fondart (Music Fund for Creation 2021). 

In addition, his performance Mi Vox, which explores the crossover between performance and sound art, was presented at the 4th PM Festival of Poetry and Music, and in the exhibition “Singularidades sonoras”, financed by Ventanilla Abierta 2021. 

Since September 2022 he has been based in Portugal, so his most recent production took place in the framework of a residency at the Centro Cultural Central Eléctrica de Porto. As a result of this instance, a first public opening of Imago-Besta was presented, this performance (still in the process of creation) fuses performing arts and sound experimentation.
