Caterina is always been interested in visual arts, and three-dimensional space, since early childhood when she played with her Lego’s blocks.
Having born in Venezuela, but been bought up in Italy had a strong impact on her life for the reason that she was always immerged in a multi ethnical environment. This life experience and the frequent traveling in Europe and in south America widen her appreciation for the built environment, music, sports.
She had therefore suited for 5 years music (clarinet and saxophone), watched films, read comics and studied ancient Greek and Latin, along with philosophy and history and history of art. After high school her thirst for knowledge and understanding brought her up to studied for a year international politics. But yet was not enough, she desired more, she want something related to her visual senses, while the love for cinema was always under her skin, like young “Salvatore”.
Years went by and she enrolled in architecture at the University College for the Creative Arts also known as Canterbury School of Architecture where she graduated in 2006. Where films kept her company while drawing up elevations and plans.
She has recently moved to London, after a year in Italy as architectural assistant in a Italian firm. In London she has realized that she belong to the cinema and she finally found the courage to undertake this new career, understanding that architecture was just the beginning and the strong foundation for a complicated career such as production designer where she would freely conciliate her design experience with her contraction experience.
Since than she had working in some shorts, horror feature film and documentaries, that gave her the opportunity to work finally in a team with her friend and colleague Giorgia Provatidou.
She is currently seeking to work for a film that would generate in the viewer the same sensation she had felt the first time that she stared quietly on a big screen, but she has a good vibe about “Invalid debris” (A silent darkness is all around you; it is a vibrant moment of great expectation. The curtains are finally opening and for two hours you loose yourself in an everlasting dream).
