My clay takes shape into memories from an unwritten past, of people who live outside of me - a culture inspired by ancient Andean civilizations.
The work I create doesn't find meaning through material or process, but within the stories it holds: stories of war and tenderness, of the sacred and grotesque, where affection and loss are not opposites, but two sides of a silver coin. With each piece I build, a part of my world is settled, as life and past get intertwined despite the mask of modernity and what seems a collective effort to keep forgetting.
I create artifacts of a history that never was, but lingers.
