Brief Summary
I was born in La Plata in 1978. At age 8 we moved to Buenos Aires and from then my life has alternated between city and nature.
I grew up surrounded by art, music and literature, and since I was little I was happy drawing, cutting magazines and collages. I studied at the Colegio Nacional de Buenos Aires and am currently completing a Bachelor of Arts in Universidad de Buenos Aires: observing the work of other artists is a great source of inspiration and learning. I arrived at Prof. Florencia Fernandez Frank's workshop in 1998 where I still share experiences with a group of young artists who constantly arouse new directions. In 2006 I studied Art Direction and Costume with Juan Miceli.
I made several group and solo exhibitions. I also work as illustrator,
having performed covers of CDs, artist books and journal publications.

My work includes drawing, painting, graphic techniques, collage, installation and on-site intervention.
Arranging the materials and begin to combine them, makes me feel like a child playing or an alchemist in his laboratory, transforming the world around me, reshaping reality. That's how art works for me: any technique is valid for
translating an idea to modify an established concept. The collage principle governs much of my work, approaching random
findings, and helps me keep the ludic purpose.
My art is my magic world where happens what I want. Drawing is to keep playing, and not have to justify it.
