STATEMENT

One of the mysteries of art that continues to fascinate me despite the years is the almost impossibility of recognizing the exact moment in which a work takes shape in our mind, what was the stimulus?, what was the thought?. The other magical moment is to capture that image. To do it, to capture it, there are the means: painting, digital art and photography are mine. I join these instruments, merge them, integrate them until the image resembles what I imagined. I don’t care about being in line with fashions or trends, I only seek to take advantage of past experiences in the construction of a language that allows me to be faithful to my search in art.
