Observant by nature and attentive to details, I found in painting a way to broaden the plane of my observations and explore their meanings. Painting is for me, the most genuine way of communicating my inner Universe. My relationship with art comes from an early age. I had my first contact with a painting studio during the teens and since then i´ve been exploring painting in a self-taught way. In addition to my particular taste for urban design and architecture, dance and photography are also a source of inspiration for him. My artwork ranges from drawn and colored cities, abstract landscapes and ballerinas portrayed against black backgrounds in medium light. Sometimes the paintings reflects the nature and female sensuality, symbolizing themes such as acceptance and detachment, withdrawal and surrender, escape and freedom, and sometimes they reflect urban order and chaos, through the interpretation of everyday experiences of the different cultural contexts of the cities.
