Biography: Statement

'I understand art as a vital process full of small everyday details in this, hence my attraction to the continuous process, understanding the importance of the work as the merger of the beginning and end. Some studies public participation is what gives meaning to the work and provides a performative character.

My work is a succession of conclusions and personal reasonings learned through experiences, trips and experiences in constant movement.

I am excited to change technique, theme or discourse in each project, although there are certain elements that recur: social fears, identity and barriers (internal or external, limited by cultural customs, government laws, perceptions of race or gender, or the limitations and fears within our own psyche). I try to express that tension between social rules, which restrict our impulses and instincts.

I'm interested in metallic materials for its plastic richness and also the objetual recycling because waste are an inseparable part of our lives and also have the ability to catch them the remains of the reasons that one day, before discarding us They prompted them ours. Today waste was a tool, a food, information before.

Combine the latest technology with traditional techniques to create images with messages whose origin is different from the context in which they appear.

In my last projects I research the so-called "Society of Fear". '
