I am a Chilean artist who grew up in a small coastal town called Constitución. I would not mention this city if it had not been decisive in my creative development. I keep the memory of Constitución in my heart 'as the factory of dreams.'

It was there that I learned to fall in love with every artistic expression and with fairy tales, thanks to my mother, who read me stories every night. Her creative spirit led me to discover and explore my surroundings through magic and a deep love of nature. What has always been present in my life is drawing. When I was a teenager, I discovered linocut, which later opened the door to other techniques. In my first year of university I discovered the existence of a discipline that lies between the worlds of graphic arts and literature: graphic narrative. That was when I knew I had found my path - to fuse the three things I love most in the world: art, magic, and storytelling.
