She is an independent curator with an interdisciplinary practice situated at the intersection of art, scenography, and cinematography.

Her curatorial practice is driven by a strong interest in how space, objects, and visual technologies can shape perception and audience engagement with contemporary art. Gabriela understands space not merely as a site of display, but as an active element of artistic discourse, capable of generating emotion and fostering authentic connections between the public and the artwork.
