Futuro was born in Chile and migrated to Europe around 14 years ago where he lived in various countries before he established himself in Sweden. Whilst living there he was able to carry out courses on peace and conflict studies at Malmo University.

He has conducted work with NGOs such as Help Refugees where he functioned as communications director and most recently at UNICEF / Futbol Más as an interpreter and coordinator. Futuro has dedicated a large portion of his time to documenting migration across Europe and parts of the Americas as well as imparting workshops to the youth on alternative creative photographic approaches in places such as Brazil, Greece, Mexico, Sweden, etc.

In Sweden, Futuro has worked as a photography teacher using innovative methods of teaching through the use of analog disposable cameras. He has most recently collaborated with Göteborgs Stadsbiblioteket, Malmö Stadsbibliotek, Malmö Live, among other institutions.

Pictures from his documentary work have been widely used in newspapers and sites such as Vice, The Independent, Lomography, The Huffington Post, Joia Magazine, NewsDeeply, Highsnobiety, among others. Currently, he is working on his first photobook, a solo exhibition, and studying International Relations at Malmo University.
