La Querida Company
“La Querida” Company was established based on the efforts of Antonia Gonzalez and Amanda Wilson, who have enjoyed different career paths and artistic experiences. They took the decision to work together with a view to creating a creative core that projects the diversity and richness of their artistic proposals.
