LA PETITE SERIES is a limited edition of smaller format original reproductions of the best-selling artworks from previous and current series, pieces that, due to their large sizes many collectors could not acquire because they did not have spaces to hang them. Over the last four years I've received feedback from hundreds of interested buyers asking when would I produce smaller formats? The artworks that belong to this edition are related to the series inspired by the indigenous peoples of Mexico that I have studied for years and which much of my current series is inspired from. In this first stage I will produce circular format pieces of 120 cm in diameter x 4 cm deep. Later I will produce slightly smaller pieces also, and for those interested in smaller pieces, I am currently accepting commissions. Depending on the theme and the characters that make up my stories within a series, I usually divide them into families, separating them (the characters) by their composition and morphology, in this way I structure my series more clearly without losing the guiding discourse of it. AMAPOLA CORE and MADRE are fundamental characters in the series because it highlights the morphological qualities of the flower and the mystical and sociocultural meaning that it has both in the beliefs of indigenous communities and at the same time its influence on Western culture. Amapola Core No.3B is a variant piece that I reproduced from its original size of 190 cmø to a smaller format of 120 cm ø x 4 cm and it's one two variants based in the original. All the artworks in this edition are painted with natural pigments from the indigenous communities from which I inspire my work.

My approach to the arts began at the age of six with the study of piano and fine arts. As a teenager I got involved in theater and in that context I discovered scenography and stage production which ended up shaping the worldview of my “artist self.” I studied architecture and for a short time I worked as a set designer and later I found my passion for cultural management, an area in which I discovered my vocation as an administrator, maker, creator, executor, and organizer, which would ultimately serve as a foundation for structuring my career as artist. After years of resistance I returned to the plastic arts and immersed myself in the study of the popular arts of Mexico as well as the analysis of the uses and customs of various indigenous peoples, focusing my interest on the visual aesthetics of their crafts, clothing, as well as its spiritual worldview and its symbolism at the same time that my passion for modern architecture and industrial, textile, furniture and automotive design gave life to a peculiar way of seeing art. My work is the reflection of all the above, it is the encounter of possibilities, the consequence of my desire to amalgamate concepts and styles that are often antagonistic to each other and of my interest in everything that does not have to be explained but rather felt, it is the encounter of the indigenous with the modern, the ancestral and the present, the abstract imagination with spatial formality, they are the celebration of my own meaning of being myself.
