My interest in art is to tell a story. There is a lot of way to tell a story, you can use different medium or materials just to tell it but I prefer to use found objects, photographs, documents and classical types of drawing and painting  to reform as equal parts of a same work. All combined to serve in a mutual story. I formed from my interactions. In regards to my education in painting, I combine painting with these different materials to express myself.
Found materials, especially found photographs are my main materials. I create dialogues and stories through them that relate to my past. I work with everyday stories and situations, relocating and rediscovering them within new coordinates. Sometimes the materials give me their stories. I focus on the words that my materials imprint on me. I then relate with words and engage in a dialogue with my materials, where I can project my memories and all the connotations they bring and observe without prior context or knowledge of their owners.
However my main objective is the identity itself. I try to realize the oppression of society and thus analyze why the different rules and manners exist the way they are.
