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.

As a photographer, I shot Garnier’s Latin America advertising campaign for L’Oréal Paris in 2020.

My work has been recognised at international festivals: the Berlinale Crystal Bear (Generation 14plus) for Best Film for Adolfo by Sofía Auza (2023), and the Goya Award for Best Short Film for Cara sucia by Santiago Zannou (2004), both as art director.
