Acting Career<\/h2>\n

Since she was young, Juana here dreamed about a career in entertainment but never imagined it would happen so quickly.\u00a0 With her first starring role (in the post-apocalyptic drama The Unseen), Burga has launched her acting career with a film that addresses some of the most relevant issues of the moment.\u00a0 The said horror\/dystopian film tells the story of a war-torn world ravaged by environmental issues where people struggle to survive.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverything was very unexpected…\u00a0 I was hoping that maybe one day I could start my career as an actress but I could never have planned for this.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Just two months before filming, Juana was offered the lead role by director Nicol\u00e1s Puenzo.\u00a0 Juana portrayed the character Yaku, an indigenous woman whose search for clean water serves as a major plot point.<\/p>\n

\"Juana<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThe only reason that this could work in such a short time was my connection to the script they had written,\u201d<\/em> says Burga.\u00a0 \u201cI loved [this character] because she\u2019s a fighter who [retains] inner strength in spite of all the difficult things happening around her.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Transition Challenges<\/h2>\n

As a first-timer, Juana initially found the transition from modeling to acting to be challenging.\u00a0 The 14 hours a day filming while on location in Bolivia, Chile, and Buenos Aires brought its own hassles.\u00a0 But Juana being the badass beauty that she is, took the long days, extreme weather, and trekking through the desert with a 20-pound backpack all with grace.\u00a0 Proof that she is to conquer Hollywood one day.\u00a0 You see, she never any acting experience prior to the said film…\u00a0 But she was grateful that the producers took a chance on her.<\/p>\n

\"Juana<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThey had been looking for someone when they came across my picture online and reached out.\u00a0 They saw potential in me and I just connected in so many different ways to the character.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Outside Modeling<\/h2>\n

Aside from her work in the entertainment industry, Juana is also an Ambassador in Peru who works to protect the artisans who produce sustainable fibers who then export the material worldwide.\u00a0 For the past 4 years, Juana has been documenting the Peruvian Artisans.\u00a0 In November 2017 launched an exhibition about the said advocacy in Lima, Peru.<\/p>\n

Juana is also a supporter of Parley\u2019s for the Oceans organization.\u00a0 She is also part of Parley\u2019s Ocean School with Chris Hemsworth, Diego Luna, MIA, and others.\u00a0 The said organization aims to find solutions to Plastic Pollution in the Oceans<\/p>\n

Filming The Unseen also provided her with a bird\u2019s-eye view of the devastation left in the wake of environmental damage caused by the combination of global warming and illegal gold mining in Bolivia.\u00a0\u00a0\u201cIt was when I went to the locations that I started to discover all the problems happening to the people [who live] in the mountains.\u00a0 The mining is a way of life for many, but it strips the minerals from the ground contaminating the water and soil.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Juana now aims to involve the international fashion community, too.\u00a0 With the apparel industry currently a major source of pollution, she believes there is a lot that they can do to minimize fashion\u2019s environmental footprint.<\/p>\n

\"Juana<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThere are all these great initiatives with brands like Gucci getting involved or Vogue empowering sustainable designers and putting them in the forefront. It can\u2019t just be a trend\u2014it\u2019s really about creating a culture and changing the way people look at things.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
