I am a Colombian-born Canadian citizen with a background in architecture, sculpture, painting, and public performance.  I hold an MA from the Minnesota State University and a MFA from the University of Waterloo, Ontario. I have taught architecture, design and art at university level in Colombia, United States, and Canada. I currently sit on the boards at the Temiskaming Art Gallery, in Haileybury, Sculptors Society of Canada and Ontario Society of Artist, in Toronto, and Contemporary Art Committee, in Kirkland Lake, Ontario; in which I am the creator and current president.

I have been honoured with the creation of public commissions for the Town and Mine memorial in Matachewan Ontario, and The Kirkland Lake Commemorative Plaque at Toburn Site.  I have been a finalist in the 2008 Public Art Competition for St. Clair Avenue W. Transit Improvement project, the Pride 2014 Church Street Murals, and The PanAm path (Panamerican Games) 2015. My work stands in both public and private collections, and has been shown in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, Finland, Mexico, Germany, Japan, Poland, Taiwan and USA. My active record of exhibitions includes thirty solo shows, and multiple curated art-shows from 1997 until today. As highlight of my performance work stands the performance at the AGO (Art Gallery of Ontario) on April 2012.

I have been an artist in Residency at the Living Arts Centre Residents program, LIA International Art Program in Leipzig Germany, Fundación ACE in Buenos Aires Argentina, and Artic Ceramic Centre (ACC) Posio, Finland.  I have also being the recipient of several grants from the Ontario Arts Council, multiple awards in US and Canada, and was honoured as Establish Visual Artist of the Year 2007 by the Mississauga Arts Council.

My architectural experience emphasises design and I’ve completed from creation to construction projects in Colombia and Canada.
