Biking Painting

I am a visual artist originally from Mexico. My chosen medium is acrylic, which I use in combination with charcoal and cutouts from newspaper and magazines to create layers of mixed media on canvas. The figure is the central theme of my work, which I paint with gestural marks and vibrant colour combinations. In today’s constant search for individuality, I look for a universal identity. By painting the same figure over and over, the process becomes a mirror of the painting. This play in repetition aims to strip down differences of culture, gender, race and other categories. Each repetition becomes a new standpoint; each standpoint gives way to the possibility of finding our true Self.
