Born in Mexico City, Gabriela Reyes Fuchs is an acclaimed cinematographer and inventor whose work seamlessly merges her education and interests on art, science, and visual poetry.

Her groundbreaking scientific discovery—capturing light phenomena in human remains—was selected by Mexico’s National Fund for Culture and the Arts (FONCA) through its 2015 Grant for Cultural Projects and Co-Investments. This innovation has earned her multiple accolades.
