Artistic statement.

Born in Durango and currently based in Mexico City, I embarked on my artistic journey at the age of five, inspired by watching Bob Ross reruns with my mother. After high school, I pursued formal art studies but had to withdraw after one semester due to illness. Since then, I have developed my practice as a self-taught painter, poet, and photographer.

A pivotal moment in my career came when I was invited to the Château d'Orquevaux artist residency, an experience that reshaped my artistic perspective and solidified my commitment to my craft. During this time, I began my series Habitar, which explores the fluidity of gender and the emotional landscapes of self-expression.

My artistic evolution has taken me from Fauvist-inspired vibrancy to the raw emotional depth of Abstract Expressionism. My current body of work explores abstraction as a space of emotional and perceptual ambiguity. This new series is centered on the concept of espejismos—mirages, illusions, things that shift and blur upon closer inspection. I’m interested in how perception is shaped by memory, emotion, and expectation, and how visual language can create a sense of instability that mirrors our internal landscapes.

Moving away from the figurative and textual elements of my earlier work, I now focus on large-scale canvases where color, texture, and gesture take the lead. Each piece is built through a process of layering—adding, erasing, covering, and revealing—as a metaphor for the layered nature of personal and collective experience. I want the viewer to feel rather than analyze, to approach the painting as one might approach a memory or a dream: incomplete, open-ended, emotionally charged.

This series is also a reflection on the impossibility of fixed identity or absolute truth. Like a mirage, the self is something we glimpse, misread, and chase. Through these paintings, I invite viewers to inhabit that shifting space—to let go of certainty and find meaning in movement, sensation, and the unknown.

My work has been featured in both solo and group exhibitions, including Sin Temática (Indra Gallery, London, 2025), Efímero: Arte, Vida y Muerte (Centro Cultural Juan Rulfo, Mexico City, 2024), Ladies Night (Covet Art Gallery, California, 2024), Be True, Be You! (KBM Art Gallery, Online, 2024), Medusa: The Power of Women in Art (Van Zaig Gallery, California, 2024), Fligere (EXDECA Gallery, Mexico City, 2024), Diálogos Corporales (EXDECA Gallery, 2023), and Château d'Orquevaux Open Studio (France, 2023). My solo exhibitions include Sincretismo Pop (Tlachiquero Mezcalería, Mexico City, 2022) and Kintsugi: El Arte de Romperse (Palacio de los Gurza, Durango, 2018).

Additionally, my work has been published in The Bureau of Queer Art (Volumes 5 and Autumn Edition) and in my illustrated poetry book Kintsugi: El Arte de Romperse (2018).

My artistic practice is an ongoing exploration of self-discovery, identity, and transformation. Through my work, I invite the viewer to inhabit the multiplicity of being and embrace the beauty of fluidity.
