Born in 1975
Live and work in Bogota, Colombia

“I am an artist-curator with emphasis in new media. My experience as researcher and curator of audiovisual has focused on artworks related to the environment of post-digital technologies; I have based my investigation in expanded forms of engaging the gallery content towards the audience.

For instance my curatorship practice has been focused mainly on Audio-Visual methods. Using Photography, Video, and Installation to try to discover a personal interest in how the concept of the Human Body has been exploited in various ways through Arts, Science and Technology. I produced a body of work that when showcased made me realize the existing separation between the audiences and my work. However, I found a similar situation occurring in other artist-show-audience situations. The separation seemed to persist even though the presence of interactive tools was a common denominator in these shows.”
