Statement
I see art and the processes it implies; as a main root that include many useful aspects in life which go from instincts to measure; intuitive aesthetics to rational ethical’s mechanics. Being in this path is a constant study of the whole, going through experiences, observations and resolutions to understand it as a big unity. This study helps me to obtain different perspectives for the experience of perceiving life in an analytical and contemplative way. With the appetite to keep making new findings; and understanding the mechanism by which different disciplines are related. This interest is the constant mark that motivates my work, acting and reacting starting from of one idea.
