This project of theater/storytelling was the result of a collaboration with visual artist Marcela Rapallo and actress Wendy Betancourt between 2007 and 2008. Several children stories were narrated on the stage, in combination with the resource of digital live drawing that created part of the stage itself, and even characters that interacted with the performer. I implemented several live drawing modules in the software Moldeo, which were specifically designed for this type of performative projects.

In Cuentos Animados (as it was its original Spanish title), the actress proposes to the public a trip through a notebook filled with drawings from childhood. All the memories from friends, family, and places are constructed without limits between reality and dream: talking animals, letters that dance, fairies, enchanted woods and people converted into trees are the stories she shares with the public. Imagination is the key to enter into this magic world of drawings.
