GOLD LIST AWARD ARTIST. Featured in The Gold List Special Edition #7.
“THE FOLLOWING PIECES ARE PART OF A NEW COLLECTION DEVELOPED FROM UNIVERSAL POP CULTURE REFERENCES AND BRING NEW CHARACTERS AND ELEMENTS CREATED FROM MEMORIES AND INSPIRATIONS OF MY DAILY LIFE AND REFLECTIONS.
THIS NEW SERIES, WHICH I USUALLY CALL “SPACE CUBISM,” BRINGS IN CERTAIN CHARACTERS AS A PROPOSAL FOR A REINTERPRETATION OF CUBISM, WITH SCIENCE FICTION AND SPACE TRAVEL AS THE SETTING FOR A NEW AND ORIGINAL UNIVERSE CREATED OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS IN MY STUDIO.
THE IDEA OF COMPLETELY FILLING THE AVAILABLE SPACE IS TO REFLECT ON THE EXCESS INFORMATION OF THE PRESENT DAY IN A LIGHT, HARMONIOUS AND FUN WAY, WITH THE INTENTION OF LEADING PEOPLE TO AN ABSTRACT FEELING OF FULLNESS AND RELIEF.”

He draws the viewer in repeatedly and provokes the public by using storytelling as a key element in his thematic, transformative way of converting memories into stories told with spray, acrylic,
