hello!

Imagination

Design is an open experiment, it is contantly evolving with culture. I strive to express narratives with a mixture of playfulness.

Education

The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, was a place to develop coceptually and also an enviroment to work with diverse artists and participate in public events as well as in gallery spaces.

RISD, Fusion Exchange Program, gave me a new perceptive on the process of design from diverse cultures. Me and 19 students from different nations worked, lived and traveled together.

Florida Atlantic University was a strong academic foundation and in many ways it prepared me for new challanges.

Motivation

I was lucky to be exposed to great professors and amazing people who support my vision of art.

“Nonstop” is a triptych with three illustrations that together tells a narrative about movement. Like a storyboard, the pictures are organized next to each other in chronological order. The shapes follow the actions of the next, with sharp and organic lines. The positive and negative space is carefully chosen with the black and white colors for certain lines complete a motion. This illustration is a reference to the complexity of a moving culture, it is a city surrounded by tall buildings, congested roads, the loop, and the activities, which people repeat day after day.

Radio is an album cover design created for mR.id, a Graduate from the Berklee College of Music. The musician uses many instruments which he wanted incorporated into the design as well as an iconic element such as an old-fashioned radio stringing out music. With mR.id’s descriptions, a study was made of the several instruments . mR.id’s personality and ideas became the forefront for the style of these drawings.
