As an artist I produce concepts, associations and links related to concrete art, new informalism, geometric abstraction, minimalism and experimental art. Social analysis and criticism, current cultural and local elements, symbols and chronicles, makes abstraction even more abstract.
Most of my work represents my reaction to the chaos in which we find ourselves, both global and personal, from the view point of a Colombian, from a society where this has been an everyday reality over many years, but who has the perspective of having lived, studied and worked in North America and the Far East.
As such, my art resonates, graphically and emotionally, with recent events (Bataclan-Paris-Orlando-Florida,Aleppo-Syria) which have brought this reality home to us.
Most of my work questions the actuality of the world we live in, and are forced to accept, with its chaos, violence, corruption power-structures, power-seeking, wars, extremes of wealth and poverty, famines and excessive consumption, egocentricity and generosity, hatreds and loves, and its prejudices and openness; it also questions what the future has store for us, if any future there be.
