n the creation of art for a globalised world and a public with a need to consume disposable goods and exchange commercial messages, I play with the cultural codes of our society on the borders of our mental representations. My work has a dual purpose: it is both allegorical and a protest, it has the quality of a capricious object that invites a quick and compulsive consumerism and which, out of context, becomes entertainment that stimulates communication. For this purpose I use marketing strategies to locate images in this global village in which we live and in which if an event does not become an image for consumption it does not exist.
There are truths in life that can only be expressed through art and my purpose in life is to create images which have the ability of connecting and communicating on a grand scale. Art is the only way to awaken society.
