About the art
Artist statement
Fiesta de la Tirana is an annual festival held in the locality of La Tirana in the Tarapacá Region of northern Chile. The celebration takes place on July 16 in honor of the Virgen del Carmen. La Tirana is the biggest geographically localized religious festivity in Chile and attracts between 200,000 and 250,000 visitors during the week of celebrations, while the village's permanent population normally numbers 1,200 inhabitants.
Statement:

My existence and consciousness are the main subjects of my current work. It is the best starting point since most or all of us start our adulthood wondering the same questions; Why are we here? What comes next? And where do I stand in all of this? My views on this are drawn, written, and painted.
