“Painting is my language, my way of life and my passion. That’s how it has been since we have discovered each other. My work is based on experiences lived during my childhood, connecting with that scared and fearful child before making my first move. My inner child is fearful and scared not by the change, but by the concern that his most precious objects (toys) will suffer some damage in the transfer from ideas to painting, hence my desire to wrap and preserve faces with paper."
He has participated in more than 50 group exhibitions, among which are "Masters of the imagination..." The Latin American fine art exhibition in New York City; USES, Arte Vivo, Museum of Modern Art in Mexico City and Group of sixteen Contemporary Art.
