Diego Vara, a Toronto based multimedia creative that has been independently funding and putting together projects like MATADOR with artists not only in Toronto, but also from Dominican Republic, Colombia, New York, Ecuador, Brazil and of course Canada.

Matador, is a product that was created during Covid times that did not let distance and restrictions get in the way of being made. Yes it took a while but we are proud to have been able to create something without not a single artist being in the same room.
