Gustavo Obregón

Obregón; Gustavo

Direction, Script
Gustavo Obregón is a Mexican filmmaker and visual artist. He began his artistic journey in illustration and  later started producing videos in which he documented and shared his creative processes. Working under the pseudonym Gawx, he created an audiovisual body of work in which he was fully involved in writing, directing, shooting, editing, and acting in his own productions.
Through this work, he built an international community of more than four million people that established a digital presence linked to illustration, audiovisual art, and creative experimentation.

His first short film, Cuerda Manual, marked his entry into narrative cinema. With this project, he took the language and sensibility he had developed  in his digital pieces and turned them into a fictional cinematic approach.
