I am inspired by the analytical purpose of surrealism and the aesthetics of different forms of ancestral symbolism, mystery and mysticism.
Dreamscapes are the result of an intuitive work which seeks and creates its own language of codices, that speak from the invisible realm of unconscious desires. Not bound by a specific genre, I am using my drawings as well as objects and installations to stage various sets of emotions shifting between love and hopelessness. The feeling of nostalgia and melancholia coexist with aspects of nature, ancestral identity and spirituality, sometimes questioning my own identity and belonging as a migrant woman from a colonized continent.
