Pedro Lavin

New York City, New York, USA

Pedro Lavin is a visual artist and filmmaker from Mexico City. Working in various media including animation, illustration, and film, he constructs personal mythologies; and weaves magical realism, fantasy and oneiric exploration into his visionary stories. Lavin’s work is rooted in themes of sex, gender and love, and challenges heteronormativity with a radically queer voice. It has been featured in the Sundance Film Festival and the New York Times; won gold at Orion international Film Festival; and is part of Vimeo’s curated Experimental Film collection, among others.
