Statement
My practice is multidisciplinary, adapted to the projects I embark on. I follow my intuition along the paths it leads me, aided, of course, by careful research. This is within a framework of intense interest in narratives, ambiguities, and atmosphere engendrered by the violence and displacement embedded in Paraguay's history.
