Bio
Mexican plastic artist and designer. Born in El Paso, Texas. (1990)
His whole life he had a fascination for paper and its possibilities. From the age of five he made paper airplanes and an endless number of origami figures. This, along with his love for creation led him to study Industrial Design, entering the Ibero-American University of Mexico City in January 2010.
In the third year, his love for art and music grew and he decided to move to Boston, Massachusetts to finish school and start his studies as an artist. There, he soaked up several creative minds and joined
the metal casting team, key moment in his life as an artist because it was where he melted his first piece of origami in iron (a rose), leading to endless experiments which are the basis of his work today. In 2015 he graduated obtaining a Bachelor in Fine Arts.
His current residence is Mexico City, and he dedicates himself to making sculptural works and murals, composed of intrinsic pieces of origami, a paper folded in geometric patterns and molded with mud, and emptied in resin with graphite; giving as a result complex textures that play with the light and the space.
