I was born in a small town in Boyacá, Colombia, and throughout my life, I’ve lived in various cities, which gave me different perspectives and experiences. I began my studies in industrial design, but it was illustration that sparked a deep passion for the graphic arts, leading me to explore various artistic disciplines.
My work focuses on the relationship between my personal experiences and the world around me, using techniques like mosaic, illustration, sculpture, and printmaking as my means of expression. Each discipline offers me a distinct way to reflect my thoughts and emotions. Mosaic, for example, is a metaphor for reconstruction, while screen printing connects me to the DIY philosophy and the beauty of manual work. Illustration allows me to reinvent the world I see and experience it from a personal perspective.
For me, art is a way to inhabit the world more comfortably, a vehicle to express what I think and feel, and a way to connect with others. Through my work, I aim to create a space for reflection and connection for those who encounter it. My creative process is a blend of technique, experimentation, and the constant evolution of my personal experiences. What I create reflects not only my personal growth but also my desire to inspire others to see life from new perspectives.
Today, from Chicago, I continue seeking growth as an artist and as a person, letting art be the bridge that connects me to the world and to those around me.
