About

CELESTE is a collaborative endeavor between partners JuanMa Calderon (Peru) as chef and film-maker, and Maria Rondeau (Guatemala) as architect and producer.  They see this as an extension of a series of projects they have worked on together over the years, including KRIOLLO REAL, a pop-up restaurant held at their home in Cambridge since 2013, C-41, an artist residency project founded in La Antigua, Guatemala, and the production of JuanMa's latest film, AMORES GATOS.  Their ideas have always been tied to working collaboratively with friends and colleagues, allowing a sense of experimentation in how things happen, and challenging the status quo.  Paola Ibarra (Mexico) joins them at the bar, sharing her love and experience as beer connoisseur.
