I have always been exited to represent reality
through my work, because representation is
a vehicle children use to learn about their
culture and recreate it.
I grew up in the eclectic atmosphere of
Bogota Colombia where I continuously experienced
the collision among ideas, movements, cultures
and civilizations.
In this diverse and mystifying atmosphere,
representation has been my Ariadnas thread
to get back out of the labyrinth of society.
I use all colors or materials without limitations
which allow me to arouse the senses and express
the intensity of my background, as a way
to recreate and share the spirit of my culture. |
