In the heart-wrenching aftermath of the Bajaya Massacre in Colombia, stands as a poignant tribute to the silent screams and enduring resilience of its victims. This evocative sculpture, crafted from weathered stone, portrays a Christ figure stripped of its arms and legs, a powerful symbol of the profound loss and devastation wrought by violence. The figure's torso is marked by jagged scars, a visceral reminder of the wounds inflicted upon the innocent. Its face, wrought with agony yet suffused with a quiet dignity, gazes outwards with eyes that bear witness to the unspeakable horrors of the massacre. The absence of limbs speaks volumes, representing not only the physical mutilation suffered by the victims but also the loss of agency and the shattering of hope. Surrounding the figure, fragments of broken chains lie scattered, symbolizing the bonds of oppression and suffering that have been shattered by the tragedy. Yet amidst the wreckage, there is a glimmer of light – a single candle, its flickering flame a beacon of hope amidst the darkness. It serves as a reminder that even in the face of unspeakable cruelty, the human spirit endures, resilient and unbroken. "Memorias de un pueblo, casi en el olvido" invites viewers to bear witness to the pain and suffering of the victims, to confront the uncomfortable truths of violence and injustice, and to stand in solidarity with those who have been silenced. Through its stark simplicity and haunting beauty, this sculpture serves as a powerful call to action, challenging us to strive for a world where such atrocities are no longer tolerated, and where the voices of the voiceless are heard and respected.

Colombia
I handle abstract expressionism and distinguish my style with the unique technique of 'Dripping - impasto,' granting my works a three-dimensional connotation. Through difficult experiences in my personal life and in the social context of Colombia, I channel repressed expressions into my art, reflecting sensitivity about the anatomy and spirituality of the human being in each piece.
