Born in Uruguay and raised in Canada, my art is a reflection of my own journey of displacement and cultural exploration, an inner seeking of truth. I received my formal education in Painting and Drawing at OCAD University in Toronto, but my true education has come from travelling the earth and immersing myself in diverse cosmologies, cultures, and mystical traditions.
This exploration of the vast unknown has led me inward, to the mysteries of the cosmos within. Learning to listen intuitively for breakthroughs that reveal my true self, through a continous practice of pure encounter with what is.
I approach my art making with playful experimentation and tactile immediacy, tearing, stitching, and fusing them together with fire.
I find solace and meaning in reconciling found materials from my surroundings and breathing new life into them.
