My practice as a visual artist is focused on creating symbolic bridges between individuals and / or communities; that have different cultures and geographic spaces. My work has transversal axes as: marginality, exclusion and invisibility. These are related to deep issues such as: migration, racism and particularly the historical memory associated with the internal armed conflict in Peru (1980 - 2000), which I have been developing for two years, creating a Memory Space with a specific community.

Formally, my work is in macro or micro scale; and for specific sites. My practice can be individual as well as collective. I believe in co-creation processes, as an individual, I am part of the collective artist group FIBRA and as part of the community, we made a Memory Space with the people of Hualla in Ayacucho, Peru; and with nature, a bio materials project.

THREADS MIGRATION
Threads Migration Installation
Exposición "Poetas en tiempos de Escasez"
2012

The piece addresses the migration, considering the internal and external migration in Peru. The installation aims to present the migrant's imaginary, the various icons that mark their territories by different cultural shift from a province of Peru, from Lima to a big city like New York.
The installation displays the threads of transit migration, building the iconography of each place, and accompanied with audios that are the testimonies of people who have migrated.
