Arizona Opera Cast Members & Creatives

With a background in sculpture, Liliana knows how to combine her artistic vision with the practicality of set design. Recent opera projects include Il Postino for Virginia Opera and the premieres of Sweet Potato Kicks the Sun for Santa Fe Opera, and If I Were You for Merola Opera Program. Additional titles include Madama Butterfly for Opera de Colombia; The Magic Flute for Teatro Nacional Sucre, Ecuador; Maria de Buenos Aires for San Diego Opera and Arizona Opera. Liliana is equally at home with theater and musical theater, having designed many titles around the San Francisco Bay Area where her designs have been nominated for several regional design awards.

Originally from Colombia, Duque Piñeiro came to the United States on a Fulbright scholarship. She holds MFAs in both Sculpture and Set Design from the University of Cincinnati.
