He quickly stopped drawing faces in his preschool notebooks to start making geometric shapes. He would spend hours disassembling junk electronics from a drawer at his grandparents' house, connecting motors, lights or whatever to a battery to see what would happen. A little older, he bought sound toys in the "sale" section of the toy store, to intervene in his circuits and get new sounds from the underworld, beginning to cross the worlds of art and technology. In his pre-adolescence he became self-taught thanks to the internet and learned to use all kinds of software. at fourteen they were showing animations of him made in Flash on MTV. He studied Multimedia Arts at UNA, where he was able to experiment with different supports and techniques. Thus he began to delimit his search in the fields of modularity, visual patterns, optical effects, light phenomena and kinetic experiences. After graduating he was selected as artist-in-residence at Betahaus Berlin. After living abroad for a few months and exhibiting in different places, he returned to Buenos Aires and began his career as a visual artist within the contemporary art circuit, creating light installations, programmed objects, image-generating devices, screen prints, paper cut-outs. and paintings, always within the framework of geometry and abstraction.
