Harold Albert García Sandoval
Harold Albert García Sandoval is a lighting designer and scenic creator whose practice unfolds at the intersection of architecture, stage production, spatial design, and light.
His training in architecture at the Universidad Iberoamericana and the Instituto Tecnológico de Tijuana has shaped a distinctive approach to the stage — one in which space is not a neutral container, but an active structure of relationships between body, light, materiality, and perception.
Over more than a decade, he has collaborated closely with artists, companies, and ensembles across Mexico, including Dédalo Artes Escénicas (Sonora), Alicia Sánchez y Compañía (Mexico City), Teatro en el Incendio, Teatro de León, and Lux Boreal (Baja California), among others.
His work has been presented at significant platforms of the national and international performing arts scene, including Grand Performances (Los Angeles), the Encuentro Nacional de Danza, the Festival Internacional Lila López, the Muestra Internacional Cuerpos en Tránsito, and the Premio Nacional de Danza Guillermo Arriaga.
Approach
Light as scenic language
Light is not approached merely as a technical tool, but as a compositional element within the scenic language.
Through light, space becomes dynamic — shaping atmosphere, perception, rhythm, and the visual dramaturgy of performance.
Space is understood as an active structure of relationships between body, light, materiality, and perception. Not a container. A grammar.
Research Project
Skené — A Space Inhabited by Light
Skené represents a natural continuation and critical deepening of Harold García's trajectory — a shift toward authorial research, translating the tools, questions, and experiences accumulated over more than a decade of scenic work.
The project synthesizes his interests in architecture, illumination, spatiality, and contemporary performance, positioning itself as an opportunity to consolidate a singular line of investigation and creation with the potential to contribute to the field of performing arts in Mexico.
As a space inhabited by light, Skené explores the threshold between the architectural and the scenic — where built space becomes a medium for perceptual and bodily experience.
