ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Amapola Seed is an abstraction of the Peyote Seed, in which I continue using the technique of blurred interlineations to achieve the effect of radiance. In this family of Amapola seeds, the application of solid colors and less saturation will also be appreciated, although in essence it continues with the aesthetics of peyotes and roots. Poppy flower is a different element but related to peyote because both are plants commonly used among the indigenous peoples of Mexico for their religious purposes. Another particularity of this piece, apart from its composition, is that it is built with MDF panel and hard wood structure, but with an irregular shape, which gives it its own identity. The measurements are 180 cm in height x 120 cm in length x 6 cm in width. Amapola Seed (180 cm in height x 120 cm in length x 6 cm in width irregular frame) and it is signed on the back along with the certificate of authenticity attached also signed. ***This piece is painted using natural pigments from indigenous communities; it does not need frame and depending of the type of surface on which it is hung is the system that will need to adapt to the frame.

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.
