STATEMENT The images that I make come from my own experience and connection with nature, there are also in uences of my cultural context, like the importance of rituals. All my work seems to be a story that is never completed because there is no beginning or end. It is a story that happens day by day, in constant evolution and is created continually. Therefore each painting, drawing and sculpture looks like a fragment, since they are episodes inside the same world.
