Theater is composed of multiple elements that help convey a desired concept. One of these is set design, which integrates various objects and techniques to build an atmosphere aligned with the narrative universe. In an interview with Erika Malo, Mexican set designer Jorge Ballina notes that the setting is not just a visual resource for the audience, but also helps actors step into their characters' shoes to effectively convey the intended message.
Ballina has been honored at The Metropolitan Theater Awards and has worked on operas for Bellas Artes and Berlin. Over his career, he has designed more than a hundred sets for various national and international productions. Currently, he is in charge of bringing to life the universe of “Everybody's Talking About Jamie,” a play about identity, self-love, and diversity.
