She grew up in the arid Mexican Sonora desert which gave her an appreciation for vibrant colours; from purple orange sunsets and red soils to the electric blues of the ocean. Her love for colour can be appreciated in all her pieces.

Art has been always a part of her life; she remembers being 10 and writing poems before going to bed and tucking them in her pillow until her mom realized she had nothing but paper in her pillow. Her practice includes poetry, photography, painting, mixed media, and print making.

Art Statement

The painting series “figuring out” is inspired by my internal quest to make sense of the places and people that surround me and how they fit in my life.

I use geometrical figures to represent people; they all come in different shapes and have unique qualities and energies.

My acrylic abstracts are a reflection of my experiences when I analyze or try to “figure someone out”. This stirs up feelings of excitement, confusion, amazement, and frustration that come to you when you try to understand another human being.

Who are they? What do they give or take in life? Those are examples of my internal questions. Understanding brings empathy and compassion and that is what I attempt to do through the painting process.

My 3D art Boxes “Decaying” series was inspired by the urge to recycle, the quest to do with what we got. I beautify old wood boxes and use scraps of metal and other stuff to create unique pieces of art.
I love the beauty of the process of “decaying”. It’s a reflection and exploration of the aging process and growing older. We change with time and yet we can “beautify ourselves” in the process just like the materials I use in my boxes.
After all growing old is not so bad we just have to learn to appreciate the new "textures" our body is giving us.
