BIOGRAPHY
André Figueroa Garza / February 15, 2001 / Mexican born
Figueroa directed his first short film, Todavía No Puedo Dormir (2018), an avant-garde/neo-noir/experimental/silent drama that caught the attention of many famous film directors and actors. Elena! (2019) and Sándalo (2019) were shot on film romantic dramas, their troubled productions gave him the confidence to move onto bigger projects. Figueroa's growing ambition forced him to leave home and move to Mexico City in 2019 where he became a painter, photographer, creative director, writer, actor, and singer-songwriter. During this time he wrote his cinematic saga, LYRAE.
In 2023, GENESNAS, his would-be first feature film, and his big-budget play WICCA MACBETH, an adaptation of THE TRAGEDIE OF MACBETH by William Shakespeare got canceled mid-production due to the lack of financial aid and poor treatment inflicted by Secretaría de Cultura.
Singing and songwriting were just a hobby for Figueroa, but they became equally important to him as filmmaking, and eventually, he wrote his first album, Cantos Desde Ursa. From that point, Figueroa focused his energy and creative powers on the making of the big-budget, avant-garde/orchestral/art rock album, which is heavily inspired by Scott Walker’s solo albums.
After his parents death there was nothing left for him in Mexico City so he quit his commercial directing job at Guayabo Films and cut contact with his friends. Figueroa lived for a short period in Nuevo León, where he worked as a fashion model. Figueroa is currently moving to Tulum to record Cantos Desde Ursa, a project he feels he was always meant to do. He is also in the process of starting his own fruit juice company.
André Figueroa Garza isn't the reincarnation of Lord Byron.
