ARTIST STATEMENT 

“Behind every image, a message is found.  To understand it, you must observe every detail.”
This is just the beginning to put in my creativity to work. During the way, nice comments have come and encourage me to expand my knowledge and express it as art. My key is simplicity. Using simple objects makes my artwork stand up and be consider brilliant. My goal is to express how identity forms a person and how been transnational might affect it. My inspiration came from my own experiences and listening to others going through the same situation. I tend to portray those topics with simple symbols that show my message about Central American identity and transnationalism.
