Armando Navarro Rojas

I was born and raised in Nuevitas, a town in eastern Cuba. During my undergraduate and master's studies, I have focused on film studies, specifically on community audiovisual as a counter-hegemonic discourse. I have experience in filmmaking, particularly in assistant directing for two documentary series. Additionally, I have experience in university-level teaching at the Centro de Diseño, Cine y TV in Mexico. My interests lie in Caribbean literature and cinema. I intend to address the relationships between discourse, space and representation in a large textual corpus from and about the Caribbean throughout the 20th and 21st centuries. Specifically, to analyze the space that remains after the incidence of the three dominant discourses of modernity: corporatism, liberalism, and socialism.
