Statement
I have ventured into art because of my own need to transmit the emotions and sensations I have felt since childhood, which since their first appearance have been complex to express in words, so I have dedicated myself to painting as a way of communicating memories and experiences, in order to also have the possibility of helping to channel the experiences lived by others.
My approach goes beyond the creation of images; the true reality of my pictorial processes lies in the generation of sensory graphic messages through symbolism and surrealism, mostly addressing universal themes such as memory, mental health and personal healing, with the aim that my works act as catalysts for dialogue and reflection, creating a bridge between the visual and the emotional.
Since 2015, I have dedicated myself to the study and immersion of crossmodalism, enriching the constant desire to create in my exhibitions a space where the viewer can immerse themselves in a unique sensory journey that not only affects them visually, but on the contrary, generates stimuli in all the senses that are totally different and personal.
The tools I use in my work range from the controlled interaction of colours, the union of symbols, to the integration of artistic disciplines such as music, gastronomy, dance and performance, which add components of synaesthetic depth, creating multi-sensory experiences that enrich the traditional perception of art.

BIO
A self-taught artist who began her practice in 2008, developing a personal visual language about emotion and memory. In 2015, she incorporated the study of cross-modality as a conceptual axis, exploring the correspondences between the senses and the possibility of generating an expanded sensory experience between the work, the viewer, and various arts such as music, gastronomy, and performance.
In 2018, he began a series of self-managed projects that marked a shift in his artistic practice, focusing his attention on mental health as the conceptual and vital axis of his work to date.
