Javier Ormeño is a research-based artist and lecturer working at the intersection of memory, justice, and ritual. His work asks how embodied practices of care— the tea ceremony, shared meals, mindful encounters — can hold space for memory and repair after violence, with a focus on Peru's post-conflict landscape. This awarded research draws on 15 years of coordinating humanitarian operations with the Red Cross across four continents and ongoing training in chanoyu. He teaches Ethics and the Performing Arts at PUCP (Lima). His films and performances have been shown at international film festivals.
