As a Guatemalan native, I moved to Chicago with my mother and sister at age six and have cultivated an artful life long since. During my youth, I discovered Chicago's urban street art culture and used concrete and steel as my two main canvases. Strictly working with aerosol paint and markers, I defined my visual art as belonging to a bold yet fluid, non-objective world.
After getting schooled and receiving an Associate's in Graphic Design at Robert Morris College, I felt it was time to experience larger mediums of style in digital art. Therefore, pursued an education in Computer Animation at Illinois Institute of Art in Chicago and took to applying significant value to 3D texture, contrast, and depth, in my paintings.
Influenced by ancient civilizations, mythology, and spiritualism, my work aids to create an understanding of how all of these intersect and form a collective consciousness. An artist aspiration dear to me is to create art that audiences will reflect upon, use as a means to search for their own narrative and plug into a global consciousness that leaves the subject out of focus.
