Multidisciplinary fine and visual artist based in Bogota Colombia. Through his digital and material pieces like paintings, sculptures, installations, interventions and videos, he questions the relation of society with formalisms such as work, formal and informal, its power structures, the ways of relations, behaviors and schedules. He establishes connections and analogies in order to generate critical approaches to dominant typical narratives.
Digital creator since 2010, he has been interested in new media and audiovisual production, being part of the direction and editing of video clips, performance recordings and urban action interventions. Specialized in 2D animation and art direction, video projection as a visual jockey, creating mappings for musical concerts, theatrical plays and corporative presentations on diverse stages. He has given several workshops and presentations in district establishments.
Also, his work has a parallel line, focusing on a colorful visual proposal with innovative ways of digital images, obeying his empirical formation, performing as a graphic designer and digital producer, areas in which he has elaborated physical and digital images, illustrations, and general content for several private enterprises and public companies as well.
Currently, he’s working on a new artwork curatorship, related to furnishing moving and haulages based on his personal and familiar life experience. He also still working as a digital creator exploring different software he is not used to operate such as touch designer and blender among others.
My work has focused on the work, it refers to tasks execution that involve a physical and mental effort, whose objective is the production of goods and services that at some point in life we have attended from need, taste, obligation or vocation.
There are two aspects on this thematic axis: formal and automatic work, which establishes a series of formal and standardized rules pursuing a behavioral officialdom in the standardization of labor processes. On the other hand, in contrast, served by a majority population, there is independent and informal work, which does not meet a corporate agenda beyond the staff and is usually desalinated in a plurality of environments much more diverse.
Both types of work are consistent in essential aspects, constancy, discipline, effort, routine, investment of money, time and energy, commitments intended to exchange these conditions for a monetary amount representing economic remuneration.
Through techniques as diverse as divergent, urban intervention, video, drawing, painting and installation, I have approached this theme with various concerns and concerns that hides this idea of work as something sacred, as it is commonly referred to as a blessing, but also its equivalent interpretation, work as a punishment, an imposition and a curse. The promise of independence and freedom carries this duality which is paradoxical because it is also seen as a sacrifice.
