  • VISUAL ARTIST
  • NEO FOLK CONTEMPORARY
  • ACRYLIC ON CAVAS


For me, painting emerges as a form of dialogue between memory, materiality, and perception, explores abundance, human connection, and collective memory. Through vibrant compositions full of rhythm, color, and repetition, I create scenes that evoke community, ritual, and belonging. Each piece transforms the everyday into a powerful visual language, where every detail builds a narrative of life, energy, and growth.

My works arise from the desire to stop time and capture the vital energy of the markets and Guatemalan culture, where every day people transform the generosity of the land into food and joy. Through the dense technique of acrylic pointillism, I seek to convey to the viewer the pulse of a life full of rhythm and colour, seen from an aerial perspective that creates a 360° panoramic view. This collection reinterprets Guatemala from above, where colours, textiles, and everyday life become visual patterns with their own rhythm, capable of evoking identity, culture, and memory..
