History
"My work deals with cities and their inhabitants, the inclement weather, the vicissitudes of life and how the human being continues standing just like the structures that are reflected in my work, which are reinforced, intertwined and rise between big cities. An architecture that is amalgamated with the growth of the city, symbols such as bridges, roofs, windows allow to enter the psychology of each human being. The mounds allow to give a reading of perseverance and strength that gives life to the feeling that the human being in the family is found".

History
"The objective of my proposal resides in configuring a new aesthetic and abstract language, a composition of imperfections, a stage built by stains, blots, rough textures and transparencies spilled deliberately on the canvas in a way that generates a dialogue with the unconscious of the human being, a conversation about life.The seed as origin, the corn as the food base of our peoples, eating tortillas and corn products is an action of cultural resistance today._cc781905-5cde- 3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_The use of the corn seed, the Mayan numbers and some original elements that I will integrate into the work are the reflection of that blurred identity that I want to represent in the midst of colors, between the abstract and the corn figure."
