About the Artist
As a visual artist I aim to make constructions that offer an insight into the relationship with others and with the space that surrounds us; as well as to explore routine and the way we inhabit space. My practice is an exploration of the contradiction between the dynamic world we live in and the rigid structures of the building environment and architecture that contains it. As a result, art is used as lens to think and rethink this language, trying actively to renegotiate meaning through asking questions differently. Laying down the platform to engage in conversation to try to renegotiate these agreements.
Eminently simple yet complex in its implications, my work stands as a paradigm for a practice of making, which is beyond either art or architecture.
I experiment on and in the real world. Pulling apart the structures of our everyday life, playing with the materials out of which we construct our surroundings and our implements, and opening up new spaces within a world we thought we had defined. What remains inherent throughout my practice is the sense of experimentation and investigation that operates as an extension of our ability to be at home in the world, to remake our reality, and to question our existence through what we make.

Como artista visual me propongo realizar construcciones que ofrecen una mirada sobre la relación con otros y con el espacio que nos rodea; como también de explorar la rutina y la forma como habitamos el espacio. Mi practica es una exploración de las contradicciones entre el mundo dinámico en el cual vivimos y las estructuras rígidas del paisaje construido y de la arquitectura que la contiene. Como resultado, el arte es empleado como un lente para pensar y repensar este lenguaje, de tratar activamente de renegociar el sentido, al preguntar de otras formas. Construir una plataforma para propiciar conversaciones e intentar renegociar estos acuerdos.
Eminentemente simple pero a la vez complejas estas implicaciones, mi obra se plantea como un paradigma para la practica del hacer, que va mas allá del arte y de la arquitectura.
Yo experimento sobre y dentro del mundo real. Yo desarmo las estructuras del día a día, jugando con los materiales con los cuales construimos nuestros entornos y nuestros implementos, y así abrir nuevos espacios dentro del mundo que pensamos habíamos definido. Lo que se mantiene inherente a lo largo de mi práctica es el sentido de experimentación e investigación que opera como extensión de nuestra habilidad de sentirnos en casa en el mundo, de rehacer nuestra realidad, y de interrogar nuestra existencia a través de lo que hacemos.
