My work as a painter is the expression of a chromatic dream where the landscape is experienced as the origin and end of internal and external worlds. In my work, I visualize landscapes as images that come from the unconscious, which do not entirely belong to this reality.

Fundamentally, I try to express the dreamlike, the unconscious, the chaotic aspects of life, and the mythical preponderantly over the scientific and philosophical logos.

My style is an abstract expressionism that reaches its limit when it takes shape in flowers, birds, mountains, rivers, and leaves, which are an expression of an internal earthquake that reflects a world that is fading away, which I want to warn about with my painting.

My brushstrokes create that landscape with undefined blotches with a unique style where I dilute the paint with paper, brush, and very liquid washes where it drips, generating an accident that I control at some point so as not to lose the shape, leading to having a controlled part and an accidental part.

In my reflections, I analyze how the artist can move from the abstract to the figurative and vice versa without allowing the pressure to maintain a style as the time demands.
