Translated from Spanish

My artistic production in the last few years is the result of working in local contexts.

This is part of a personal position that is derived of questions around artistic representation, the incidence which creative processes have in specific groups and the way in which artists are involved in different realities.

My work seeks to create micro-windows that can reflect concepts such as violence, neglect, resistance, memory, collectivity, or identity.

 

Mi producción artística de los últimos años es resultado del trabajo en contextos locales.

Esto forma parte de una postura personal que se deriva de cuestionamientos entorno a la representación artística, la incidencia que los procesos creativos tienen en grupos específicos y la manera en que los artistas se involucran con distintas realidades.

Mi trabajo busca crear micro ventanas que reflejen conceptos como violencia, abandono, resistencia, memoria, colectividad o identidad.
