We stand at the doors of no return, facing great debates between those who see technology as a means to achieve significant changes and those who focus on more ancestral knowledge. In matters of climate, we are also at the dawn of what we know as nature; in Colombia, people even felt unease seeing the hills ablaze, vigorously due to waves of heat and lack of rain. Standing at these doors is a limbo, it's like being neither here nor there, a place enabling us to distrust predestinations and rather devise new future scenarios that do not depend on a single way of shaping the world.

My projects arise from a process of observing the environment, often assimilated as “Landscape”. I seek to disrupt this concept with different ways of conceiving the world, drawing inspiration from my native region, Nariño. That’s why I always find myself traveling through that mountainous area where the borders of Colombia and Ecuador blur. I usually focus on the qualities we can attribute to the places, highlighting their tensions, which in most cases result from the diversity of perspectives with which we can approach the same thing. That’s why in my work, a single point of view, a precise idea, or something similar doesn’t solidify. I’m more interested in the idea of constructing worlds from multiplicity, diversifying thought, and entangling/disturbing what cannot be changed.
