Biography
I was born in Cordoba, 1971. Since child I loved drawing at nap time with colored glues and brilliantine. I studied architecture and graphic design; subsequently I graduated as Bachelor in Arts at the U.N.C.
I've done interactive installations, web art, video installations and digital photography.
My work frequently links tensions between reality and the concept of reality that emerges diffused because of the incorporation of new technologies in daily life.
I've done artistic residences at the Künstlerhaus B., Austria and at the Multimedia Center, DF Mexico. I was awarded with the National Fund of the Antorchas Foundation, UNESCO Aschberg for International Artists’ Residences and the Cordoba's National University scholarship.
Vision of art
1. Choose a work that represents you, describe it in relation to its format and materiality, its relation with time and space, its style and theme; detail its production process.
Binary Space Partition BSP, Austria, 2007.
I've fully enjoyed the process maybe because I had a lot of time for doing it.
I worked on P. Bordieu’s concept of the art field as a fight field. BSP is a site-specific video installation in which I reproduced on video the exhibition hall where the art work was going to take place, I added blood traces towards an object (a photocopy machine also reproduced on the video) that belong in the past to this space and that was moved back to the hall to be apart of the exhibition but without the blood traces.
For the video realization, I first reproduced the space where I was going to exhibit the work on a video game editor, then I recorded a route in the game within that environment/map that I had created and then I edited again to get the final video.
At audience exposure, Binary Space Partition, triggers relative questions about space definition, how the memory is constructed and the way that real art space can be perceived through it.
2. In general terms, how would you suggest to approach your work?
I think my work can be approached following its series and groups. I usually work on a concept-axis creating different works around it.
3. In reference to your work and your position in the national and international art fields, what tradition do you recognize yourself in? Who are your contemporary referents? What artists of previous generations are of interest to you?
I believe I'm into what is named “Art and New Mediums” and at this moment more precisely into the “Game Art”.

4. Choose works or exhibitions from the last ten or fifteen years which in your opinion were very significant and explain why
Many... A Julio Le Parc's retrospective exhibition, in Cordoba. Very interesting in the Mediterranean tradition field as a reflection of the 60’s also as a background of the contemporary art of new technologies.
