About The Artwork
"Antillas" Woodcut and collage on paper, 2020. This print is part of the "Achikanain" series celebrating Latinamerican lands which shelter 60% of the planet's biodiversity. Columbus’ ship came upon the antilles islands, marking the beggining of the suffering in these lands wrongly named “America.” The taíno peoples predominated in the Caribbean at this time. One of their main deities is Yucahú: the spirit of yuca and the sea. Yocahú dwelled in Yu-Ke (white lands), now known as El Yunque: Puerto Rico’s tropical rainforest. The highest peak in El Yunque stops hurricanes’ blows on the island, which is why it’s said that Yucahú protected the people of Borinquen perched up on the highest points of those lands, always shrouded in clouds.

I am a Colombian artist living in Barcelona. Through art I have been able to connect with the landscapes and culture of my ancestors. I re-imagine Latin American art through historical figures, legends, landscapes and symbology inspired by the iconography of pre-Hispanic goldsmith masters. I am inspired by the revival of historical memory, the wisdom of indigenous cosmovisions and nature. My work frequently transforms landscapes into relief engravings with metallic colors that represent the mineral richness of the earth. For the last four years I have been managing Casa Jaguar /@casajaguar.studio/, an art studio in Barcelona where I collaborate with other Colombian audiovisual artists with whom I share my interest in developing a visual language that integrates pre-Hispanic art with contemporary art.
