'El Deseo de Vivir' ('The Will To Live') Installation

I was born in 1987, Chile. I studied Fine Arts, sculpture, in the Fine Arts School of Viña del Mar, and currently I'm coursing a Ceramics specialty. I believe in the importance of telling stories, sharing ideas and thoughts, I believe in art that is free from preconceptions, and that flows genuinely in search of what is essential; that is my goal in life and arts, and the path I choose to follow is that of the exploration of my interior self. Because when we stand up and participate in the culture dialogue owning our individuality, we make visible the individualities of everybody else; masculinities, feminities, humanities; we stand out the raw material of which the human society has been built upon; the individual. I believe in the concept of cultural mosaic, and in the moment we exhibit we make sensible our existence in this mosaic. I like to perceive a sort of symbolism in concrete matter; found objects carry the contents of their history, my possessions are attached with my own biography, tools are filled with the evolution of human made purposes; and since matter equals energy, I do not exclude any medium or material when it comes to achieving my goal: the sincere development of my expressive will.
