About
Wuicho (Luis) Aquino.
My path in art and my commitment to my country’s cultural life have led me to film and advertising projects as art coordinator, set decorator and art director.
I was art director on Quebranto (Disney, 2024), El secreto del río (Netflix, 2023) and Casa Meraki (ViX, 2022–2023), and set decorator on the Netflix series Pacto de silencio (2022). I have also worked on films including Nuevo orden, At Midnight, Tiempo compartido and La civil.
