Pedro Larraya is an Argentine improviser with over eight years of experience as a Soundpainting conductor. He trained under the guidance of Soundpainting’s creator, Walter Thompson, in the direction of contemporary multidisciplinary compositions.
He has taught performers in non‑formal institutions, universities, and festivals across five countries, and contributed to the official Spanish translation of the Universal Soundpainting Dictionary. He is one of the two co-founders of the Soundpainting Lab Ensemble and has taken part in the most recent Think Tanks—the global Soundpainting gathering—in 2023 and 2024. He will soon coordinate the global meeting Flying Fish Tank, where leading figures of the Soundpainting community will convene to discuss his work on the acting discipline. He has also been invited to Vassar College in New York for the 2026 Think Tank with his research project, “Analysis of Linguistic Symbolism in Performative and Visual Languages through Soundpainting”.
Driven by his background in linguistics, theatrical improvisation, and his curiosity for emerging artistic languages, he continues to expand Soundpainting into new frontiers as a learning tool for performers and educators across all artistic disciplines.
