STATEMENT
Artist Statement:
I am a new American who came to the United States from Chile at age 10. After finishing my undergratuade studies, I became a single mother; who solely provided for my family it was not possible to develop my painting or sculpting as my chosen story telling voice until 2020. Nature, people doing what comes naturally to them and American contemporary culture and how all these interact with one another are all very important influential subjects to me. More, I had the opportunity to live & work in different countries. My global experience influenced me by allowing me to absorb a collection of color pallets, textures and compositional styles all which make their way to my canvas and sculptures. The recent significant social events in the United States are both important as well as impactful. Focusing on the universal understanding of love, acceptance, kindness and respect is also very important to me.
