I understand my art practice as more than the creation of objects, that making art involves a continuous process of visual research that begins with my observations of my surrounding environment. I follow by consciously collecting information from my observations. What I see or experience eventually leads through my creative experimentations to a more imaginative understanding of what connects us as human beings to each other and to the natural world.

Also walking is a practice that has become an increasingly relevant phase of my work process, since it is the initial action through which I collect visual material. Through this practice I have been able to observe in more detail the phenomena and cycles of nature with which we find ourselves in mutual relationship. It has also been a means for meditation and reflection that allows me to place myself more consciously in my context.

In my work, I am attempting to reflect the vital life cycles I observe in nature, creating images that evolve over time. I hope to reflect what occurs with living organisms by employing such processes as; multiplication, expansion of scale and mutation from one medium to another— turning photographs into drawings or prints or paintings, for example. Each of my images has its own vital life cycle. I also like working with ephemeral materials and natural objects that demonstrate through their own natural processes the way they change and degrade in time.

Now more than ever it seems necessary for me to find and emphasize the characteristics that identify us with the natural world to establish new ways of relating to it. This has led me to understand my visual work not only as a professional activity, but also as an exploratory journey during which the changing landscape is a reflection of the transformations that internally occur in me as I travel it.
