Me gusta disfrutar y explorar el mundo ordinario: cajas de fósforos viejas, solitarias y olvidadas estaciones de gas, muñecos kitsch de caucho, postales vintage y  gráfica popular latinoamericana. A veces hay un concepto político, comercial o educativo detrás de mi arte, a veces solo se trata de memorias aleatorias o ideas tontas. Desde que era una estudiante he estado fascinada con la técnica del screen: la sensación de la tinta, la textura y grosor del papel y esta clase de milagro peculiar que ocurre cada vez que la tinta se transfiere al sustrato.

I like to celebrate and explore the ordinary world: old matchboxes, forgotten and lonely gas stations, kitschy rubber toys, vintage postcards and Latin American gráfica popular. Sometimes there is a political, commercial or educational concept behind my art, sometimes just random memories or silly ideas. Ever since I was a student, I have been fascinated with the screen-printing technique: the touch of the ink, the texture and thickness of the paper and this kind of peculiar miracle coming from every time ink transfers onto a substrate.
