Artist Statement
My research focuses on the construction and deconstruction, parting from fragment and accumulation, exploring different values and cultural expressions that link social processes with spatiality and multiple visions, either from the perceptive, the significance or material, developing a continuous reconstruction of visual language, applying to different situations of being, their space and time , understanding the process as a fundamental element in the construction of her work.
Walking as space, living as space, socially and space , aesthetic construction of space, perception, transformation, reconstruction , deconstruction, intangible space, individual, collective … that you consider …
On the other hand, I experiment from political/social processes occurring in Venezuela, confronting the viewer from an aesthetic view of happenings, taking as references certain events that in a very personal way influence my work in this country.

Declaración del artista
Mi investigación se centra en la construcción y deconstrucción, a partir del fragmento y la acumulación, explorando diversos valores y manifestaciones culturales que vinculan a los procesos sociales con la espacialidad y sus múltiples visiones, bien desde lo perceptivo, lo significativo o lo matérico, desarrollando una continua reconstrucción del lenguaje visual, aplicándolo a diversas situaciones del ser, su espacio y su tiempo, entendiendo el proceso como elemento fundamental en la construcción de su obra.
El recorrer como espacio, el habitar como espacio, lo social como espacio, la construcción estética del espacio, la percepción, la transformación, la reconstrucción, la deconstrucción, el espacio intangible, el individual, el colectivo … el que consideres …
Por otro lado experimento desde los procesos políticos/sociales que ocurren en Venezuela, enfrentándolos al espectador desde una visión estética del acontecer, tomando como referencias eventos que de forma personal marcan mi trabajo en este país.
