About me

I am a professional multidisciplinary artist specializing in painting, sculpture and murals.

My contemporary universe, geometric and colorful, is inspired by digital images and everyday objects. I address the theme of the digitalization of communication, consumption and contemporary man. My paintings are conceived as interfaces in these intimate spaces. I wonder about the meeting with the other and the discovery of oneself in the need to cut certain social
links. I speak with curiosity, but also with concern, about the virtuality of human relationships and the dominance of the stereotyped image. Through my sculptures, I approach the subject in a more playful way, close to Toy Art.

I am inspired by artistic trends such as abstract geometry, Pop Art, Toy Art and the digital universe. For me, it is essential to approach these aesthetics and create a displaced, timeless scenario, marked by digital references. For fifteen years, I have been working in social action to facilitate access to culture and art to different populations.
