Interested in the subject of the feminine, much of my work focuses on visual story telling, where personal history(ies) about identity & representation intertwine with collective narratives.

In this sense, I see my work as both, a vehicle for self-presentation and political expression of “other” narratives, which are imperative in the construction of  open and plural societies where “other” aesthetics, cultural memory and traditions can be preserved, resignified and transmitted.

A personal experience of diaspora is the starting point to reflect on the complexities related to processes of cultural assimilation, the notions of longing and belonging, and the traces and legacies of ancestry that are carried onto new environments.

I paint intuitively, allowing snap shots of memories and imagination to converge. My works embrace the relationship human/earth/spirituality, that was at the core of Amerindian societies, and is still appreciated in social dynamics and cultural expressions of contemporary México.
