"La Santísima muerte" is s painting made in a mixed technique of acrylics and gold dust on canvas. This artwork is about the holy death (Santa Muerte).When I first came across her image in México City's famous neighbourhood Tepito I was so impressed and mistified by her image that i did some research on her. Thats how I found the first records of her apparitions to a catholic priest in Mexico who claimed she appeared before him and told him she had been replaced by the Lady of Guadalupe (the mexican virgin) . The Vatican didmt recognize her, call her a demon and nowadays hasnt been recognized as a cult by the Mexican instituciones, despite of its popularity.Thats why this painting blends the image of the holy death with the one of the Lady of Guadalupe.

I was born in Mexico City in a family of artists, i grew up sorrounded by paintings. I was trainned as an artist in Dublin Ireland and I began showing my work in Buenos Aires, Argentina back in 2013. I call my style POP REALISM because is realism with a tender cartoonish touch between r. I'm fearless about expressing myself and my favourite topics are the dark human feelings, where i add lots of colours and try give them a new meaning. Many of my paintings are part of different private collections in North and South America, Europe and Australia.
