The world my eyes see is always more imaginative than the real one and I have a rather sour sense of humor. Social criticism is present in almost all my work. I love to generate parallel worlds with how things should be and if I can get a smile out of the viewer I do not hesitate to do so. I like everything excessive, the bright colors, the B series and its monsters are a great influence on my work as well as science fiction, superheroes and fantastic cinema. We live in times oversaturated with images and products, life in cities is a constant temptation to obtain the consumption of unnecessary things. Within that system are the great idols who play the role of messiahs of modern life, those influencers whose image we see repeated ad nauseam as the cover of Bowie's Aladdin Sane.
Religion is another of my obsessions with its kitsch and baroque aesthetics, reinterpreting it mixed with cinema or current trends in street art, skateboarding, tattooing... Decontextualizing things to generate contrasts of elements that do not stick together is my usual way of working. My intention is not to lecture but I like that apart from the first impression the viewer thinks that this work would be feasible in our life. Could Jesus today be a graffiti artist? Would he have tattoos? Would he preach in a church or surely be a rapper with thousands of followers?
I dedicate myself to art because of the fun involved in inventing worlds better than the real one, and besides, I can't resist a box of colored pencils, it's the best of temptations.
