Great school. I am Rafael Montilla, a visual artist based in Miami, FL. I will be in NYC doing my performance Cube Man "I am you" July 8, 9 10 2021 Hashtag #cubemannyc.The cube plays a central part of my proposal. It represents a symbol of harmony, unity and balance of our life. I build and deconstruct the cube shape as a fundamental imprint of the universe. “I Am You” performance based in the #thekubeman series I dress in a white suit and the head is a cube-mirror made of acrylic in which people can be reflected; it is a dialogue of people with themselves, because you do not see my identity

John,
Thank you so much for the full year scholarship from the New York Performing Arts Academy. I learned so much in your program. All of your instructors were so knowledgeable and experienced in their fields.
For the Acting Department, the lessons from both you and Karina were invaluable, and will help me in the rest of my career. Besides the regular lessons, like acting out scenes from movies like “The Little Princess”, learning about the behind the scenes work that goes into producing a play or movie will help me be more competitive in the future.
Working with Devon on dance was so much
