What is your favorite type of art to create?

My artistic path began through cosmovision and symbolic art, translating inner visions into visual language. Discovering Ernst Fuchs helped me recognize my artistic language through sacred symbolism and mythological imagery. Influenced by Bolivian cosmology, archaeology, and sacred plants, I merge visionary art, symbolism, and abstract realism to explore consciousness and spirituality.

Where do you find inspiration?

I find inspiration in life’s challenges and lessons. Art has always been a way for me to ground, transcend pain and confusion, translating emotions and soul perceptions into visual form. Creating a painting also helps me close personal cycles and transform the experiences and emotions that shaped them. It is also a way of giving back to the sacred mystery, connected with ceremony, life experiences and ritual states — manifesting the visions I receive is an act of gratitude and transformation.

What would you do with $25,000?

If I received $25,000, I would support my daughters and visit my family in Bolivia. I would invest in my project Re Evolution Art, supporting artisans from native communities in Peru and Bolivia. It would also help me develop an immersive experience, inspired by my life journey with ceremonies, and indigenous wisdom. After spinal cord surgery with prognosis of stay quadriplegic I took years of resilience rebuilding my life, if I have the opportunity I want my work to also impact others.
