I am an artist from the Dominican Republic, where I first studied fine art and developed my artistic foundations. My interest in visual expression later led me to New York, where I studied illustration, before continuing my education in the United Kingdom, where I studied architecture and where I am currently based.

Since childhood, I have been fascinated by art and architecture and by their creative possibilities. I remember telling my mother at the age of six or seven that I wanted to become a painter, a sculptor, and an architect. That early ambition became the beginning of a lifelong commitment to artistic practice.

During my early art studies, when I was around fourteen years old, I came across a quote from the British sculptor Henry Moore: “The head and the hands are the most expressive parts of the human body, and therefore they should be treated differently from the rest of the figure.” This idea stayed with me and had a lasting influence on the way I began to think about the human figure and its expressive potential.

My artistic development has continued through an interest in different forms of making and in the relationship between observation, imagination, and experimentation. I have always been drawn to the possibilities of transforming what is seen rather than simply reproducing it. This has led me towards a practice centred on the human figure, particularly portraiture, while allowing me to explore different media and approaches to image-making.

My work has developed through a combination of personal experience, observation, and an ongoing interest in the complexities of human relationships. I am interested in how art can communicate experiences and emotions that are difficult to express directly, and how an image can remain open to different interpretations.

My practice continues to evolve through experimentation with materials, imagery, and composition. I see this process of exploration as an essential part of being an artist, allowing me to question familiar ways of seeing and to develop new possibilities within figurative art.
