Artist Statement:
I was born in Peru and have lived in the South Bronx since 1989. I am a fusion of racial and cultural identities that is the legacy of colonialism, which gives me an extensive catalog of experiences, images and ideas to feed my art.
I have learned from those cultures the creative potential of popular art and so called “Primitive Art”, these cultures has taught me the importance of the creative use of my hands and imagination to transform the imagination of others My work is inspired and shaped by my surroundings. I am on a quest to better understand humanity and myself through my art.
I have chosen Printmaking as my medium of expression because it offers the artist the chance for discovery and encourages experimentation. This year, I am working to deepen my understanding and hone my skills. I am utilizing new techniques and introducing other mediums in my work. I am taking risks and looking for new ones; using a wider palette of colors, textures and materials and combining them in ways I have never tried before.
