Julio Torres — À propos — Slash Paris

Writer, director, and performer Julio Torres crafts a distinctive universe where absurdity, tenderness, and visual precision intersect. Drawing from pop culture, fairy tales, and personal memory, he favors the role of observer over hero, stating, “I identify as a narrator.” This self-positioning shapes his films, series, and stage work, where fantasy becomes a subtle tool for examining reality. His idea of “purple” — a clash between logic and passion — encapsulates his method: subverting structures with wit and elegance. Torres resists the notion of the omnipotent creator, embracing collaboration and emotional honesty instead. Balancing irony with vulnerability, his work invites audiences into a slightly off-center perspective, where humor opens space for reflection and reinvention.
