Ana Reyes Cid is an interdisciplinary designer, artist, and researcher creating at the intersection of performance, movement, film, spatial design, and pedagogy. Drawing from her background in architecture, she approaches storytelling extralinguistically to communicate the imaginary through dialogues between space, body, and design. These dialogues deconstruct and reimagine the syntax and structures of spatial languages and the body’s experiences within them. Reyes Cid navigates transformation, the feminine, the relational, and otherness through spatial and wearable installations, interdisciplinary collaborations, and cross-cultural connections in literature and myth from both distant and recent pasts. Situating them within a contemporary context looking forward, she creates evocative narratives that bridge time, culture, and space.

A Fulbright 2023 and Chevening 2022 scholar, Reyes Cid holds an MSc in Fiction and Entertainment from SCI-Arc, Los Angeles, and an MA in Spatial Performance and Design from the Architectural Association, London—both with Distinction honors. She holds a BArch with Magna Cum Laude honors from PUCMM, Santo Domingo, where her BArch thesis "Memorial Museum to Abused Women" won national and international awards. Her work has been featured in Dazed, Voyage LA, and LA Dance Chronicle, and has been exhibited and performed internationally, including at the Allentown Art Museum, Pennsylvania (2025); Edge Zones, Miami (2024); Highways Performance Space, Santa Monica (2024); Teatro Aberto, Lisbon (2023), Architectural Association, London (2022), and the Modern Art Museum of Santo Domingo (2021).
