My work consists of a series of illustrations that explore the possibilities of digital design as a means to express my inner world and how it is shaped by social paradigms. Within this exploration, virtual systems occupy a privileged place. The computer — with its experimental potential — becomes both a vehicle for representing my subjectivity and a force that influences and shapes it, imprinting a specific tone and character. It’s a dual interplay in which subject and object — in this case, the interface — mutually determine one another.

Formally, my representations draw on elements of graphic design to construct heterogeneous universes where social bonds, though sometimes veiled, remain a constant presence.
