"My art delves into the profound depths of the human experience, each painting serves as a self-portrait, reflecting my journey of self-discovery and introspection while inviting viewers to connect with the universal emotions depicted.
Central to my vision is the celebration of diversity and the amplification of marginalized voices, particularly within the Latinx narrative. By reclaiming space and dismantling stereotypes, I aim to foster unity and celebrate triumph amidst adversity,
reading the figure of the immigrant through a queer lens.
In my art, I invite you to explore the beauty and complexity of human emotions love, longing, betrayal, joy- captured with a brush that moves like waves that wash over us relentlessly, where the rhythm of the sea echoes the timeless cadence of our hearts."
