As a self-proclaimed “visual explorer”, Artist and Visiting Professor Maria Servellón approach her multimedia projects and independent films with “reflective curiosity, moments of magical realism, and a lot of herself.” Servellón wrote, produced, directed and acted in her poetic coming-of-age short film “Hyphen.” She also is working on a short mystery drama, “Phantasma,” and has designed projections over the past few years for plays produced by Company One and the Boston Playwrights’ Theater, such as ‘Black Superhero Magic Mama’.
