Born in Mexico, Daniela Huerta is a multimedia artist, sound designer, and DJ based in Berlin. She holds a BA from Central Saint Martins School in London and has completed Sound Therapy training from the Sound Healing Academy in Cornwall. Currently, she is furthering her studies at the Center for Deep Listening, founded by composer Pauline Oliveros.

With mythology at the core, she explores modes of storytelling that shift between the real and the imaginary in an attempt to understand the realm of the psyche. Her focus lies on the origins of consciousness, archetypes, ritualistic forms, and collective memory. Huerta approaches her work with the perspective that research is a form of action, and action is a form of research. She composes hyperrealistic sound-spheres, emotive and immersive sonic explorations by combining field recordings, sound archives, deconstructed rhythms and live sampling.

Huerta has performed at events and venues such as CTM Festival, Heroines Of Sound, Radical Sounds Latin America, Berghain, Kiezsalon, Letra / Tone Festival, Roter Salon, Silent Green, among others. Her commissioned projects and residencies include CCD (Centro de Cultura Digital), Musée D’Orsay, Centre Pompidou, Moca Geffen Warehouse, Musée Du Luxembourg, ArteBa, Paso de Fauna, MONOM Berlin, Sternhagen Gut, Goethe Institute, Aki Aora and Amplify Berlin.

Other collaborations and interdisciplinary projects include Lucrecia Dalt, Soundwalk Collective, Christina Mackie, Iván Argote, Vincent Moon, Ash Fure, Ale Hop, Hexorcismos, Magda (Cornerbred), Concepción Huerta (Huerta Ensamble), Cornelia Pierce (Prima Materia) and Natalia Escobar (Koaxula).
