What are the main topics you are looking for in your work?

I work most of the time with a human figure. I am constantly worried about the way we relate as a species and I try to record that in my art and in my speech, this is based on that interaction, on those sensations and emotions that come from contact with the other or with the environment that surrounds us .

How were you initially interested in the media you use (acrylics, oils, etc.), and what attracts you to them?

Acrylic was the first resource I used, it was 2014 and I was a student of the teacher José Orlando López, in the workshop it was said that acrylic was difficult to blend and give a realistic finish to the painting, I have always liked it the difficult thing so I stuck to it and it turned out something fantastic from there, when I work something pictorial that is always my first option.

In the case of the threads it was a fantastic coincidence, it was in the year 2018 and she was a student of the Cuban teacher Fidel Yordán Castro, she was part of the group of conceptual practices artists that was developed in the Municipal School of Arts of Bucaramanga and that was directed by the teacher. There we exposed ideas every week, sketches were shown and together we contributed or questioned each other's work in a professional way, something that personally enriched me a lot as an artist. From that experience Thermal Maps emerged, pieces made of cotton threads and exposed on acrylic sheets, they are not woven or embroidered, I call it "packaging". As an artist, understanding that painting is not the only plastic resource to communicate your discourse is liberating, it opens your mind to infinite possibilities, that is what the thread means to me at this stage.

How has your style and technique changed over the years?

In the early years I painted a portrait of children with a tendency to the realistic, all my paintings were children, dreamers, curious, restless, but above all reflective. At that time I was obsessed with capturing the inner child, I had just retired from surgical instrumentation and I was facing skepticism from those around me and that was my way of fighting and expressing it.
Over time acceptance and freedom came, I took possession of art, began my exploration stage, I discovered the importance of accompanying the plastic with conceptual content, I began to worry more about what I mean? what by how?
The threads are clearly an important piece of what I do now as an artist, the bright colors have also been gaining strength, it is likely that with all this I have formed an artistic style that characterizes me.
