Barcelona based photographer, born in Santiago de Chile.

 

My photography and video explore cities, culture and contemporary concerns. Through texts, I play with the thoughts arisen by the power of words, to generate a process of reflection, to invoke uplifted feelings, values or sarcasm. 

 

After studying a career in Communication and Public Relations at Santiago, I graduated with a Diploma in Photography at the School of Fine Arts and Design at Universidad Católica de Chile. I started my studies in Modern Art spending a long season in the United States, San Francisco, CA, and New York.  My career spans a decade in the fields of art, design, sculpture, and photography. 

 

I´ve lived in Barcelona since 2004 , where I graduated with a Master in Marketing and Communication.  Since 2020, I started working in Video Editing and Animation. And currently, I divide my time in web design, with my own digital agency, and art.

 

About art, my interest began with the modern American art, with the explosion of the Pop art of the 60´s and the abstract expressionism of the 50´s. Then I took a trip in Europe studying the surrealists, guided by the book «Les Champs Magnetiques» by André Breton & Philippe Soupault and explored the practice of the automatic writing technique, and surrealism. And regarding the practice of appropriation, I highlight the action of selecting and deconstructing a work as part of the creative process. In this form of appropriation art, the tactic of appropriation is a declaration of love to the cited art.

My most recent interests include studies on Medieval Art, specifically in the periods of the 14th and 15th centuries.
