In the 2013-2014 was awarded I scholarship PECDA Program of Artistic Incentive Creation.

I have developed a body of artwork around sculpting, photography and fixtures.My work has human bonds as its nerve center, and it is focused on an exploration of the division of the being, intimacy and identity. I speak about the melancholy of emptinesss and simplicity outside the boundaries of the body . In order to express myself , I use those objects to wich we direct emotions and which we fashion into extensions of our personality. In this way i seek to reevaluate the subjective place of the observer whitin a particular combination of universal relations, to abandon a definitive "truth" and delve into existential contradictions.
