BIOGRAPHY
I come from a background where I embraced anything creative that was around me. I was born in Bolivia and lived in different countries until the age of seven. Having had the fortune of living in various countries helped shape my creative self, allowing me to be influenced by diverse cultures and art. I then moved to London 25 years ago and currently have a studio at Acme Studios in London.
I am an artist and a mother. While working part-time and raising children, I graduated from the Sir John Cass School of Art at London Metropolitan University with a 2:1 degree in Fine Art in 2015.
I am a multidisciplinary artist, painter, performer, artist facilitator, and event organizer. I published a book in 2018 titled Grass, Stone, and Wedding Cakes with Drawing London on Location when I was the events organizer for the group. The book focuses on Christopher Wren's churches.
I have been delivering workshops and organizing exhibitions across London.
I am part of FloatingArtland, an art collective based in East London.
I have exhibited in 22 venues, most notably as a UK finalist for the VIA Art Prize in 2018 and at the Saatchi Gallery in 2013.
My most recent exhibitions in 2020 include the School of Sufi Teaching - Online Exhibition - Faith in the city we inhabit and being a finalist for the 6th Landscape Competition at ART SHOW INTERNATIONAL GALLERY in the US 2022.
