Ana Ines Jabares Pita – Designer

Ana Ines is a graduate from MA Scenography at The Royal Central School of Speech & Drama 2012. Her work crosses a range of genres: opera, ballet, theatre, experimental, site-specific and film. She had previously trained at the Facultad de Bellas Artes de Sevilla, specialising in painting and in the Accademia di Belle Arti di Palermo where she first came into contact with Scenography. In parallel she has an extensive grounding in music which made her become interested in sound as a fundamental part of the scenography. She finds that theatre is the perfect fusion between her biggest passions: art, music and sound. Her work includes an award-winning play Sappho… in 9 fragments (Best Design award – Ottawa Fringe Festival), Hamlet's Fool (Cockpit Theatre) and the film ANANKE (as art director). Recently she has been announced as Overall Winner 2013 of the prestigious Linbury Prize.  Ana is one of the Gate’s Jerwood Young Designers for 2014.
