Artist Statement


As an artist, I’ve made it my purpose to use my own private experiences and extensive years of research and learning to create a body of work that tells archetypal stories that can be universal and relatable. I intend to go deeper than usual in my work and touch upon topics that are more critical and universal than whatever the current social issue might be. I strive to make my work relatable today as well as a thousand years into the future. As an immigrant that lived the first 16 years of his life in the island of Cuba, and someone who has been living in America for another 10 years, I possess a strong mix of cultures that guide my pencil with every piece that I make.
