He was born on June 17, 1981 in Bucaramanga, Santander (Colombia). Raised in the bosom of a poor family, youngest of four children. As a child he traveled extensively, due to the work of his father. He lived his youth in Chiquinquirá Boyacá, on 2000 he settled in Chia, Cundinamarca (little city near of the Colombian capital city). With entrepreneurial spirit was always looking around, searching, transforming f and developing his artistic vocation. Ha had participated in dance groups and plastic arts. "I seek an individual representation of the human figure” - "With a very personal touch, allowing the figures to represent themselves throughout the movement, translating emotions and feelings that occur daily,  and that impact on the sensitivity of the human being." "My goal is to grow as a person and artist." Colombia is a beautiful country with people with varied talents and recursive people. Unfortunately, in the international site it is not take in account this great potential,  but barbarism is take in account out of our country that has more than four decades of war. " "I am not a commercial artist, my work seeks to express situations that happen in my country and my daily life." I came from a poor family and I try to exploit all resources to the fullest, I am convinced that when things are done by vocation and come from the heart the money does not count. "I am proud to look at life from this perspective, I am a dreamer who wants to live one day from art without having to prostitute my work and hopefully I wont have to create what people wants." "My sculptures are my children, they are part of me,  is like they have their own life, I just hope people loves them for what they are, by the sensations they produce, by their shapes and what they represent." "I found what I am and it can sound a little crazy but for me is essencial live to create. Create and enjoy my work, with all efforts and all the pitfalls. " "When I started work on a sculpture, I did not think  on create the typical clay pots, I thought of something that has life, that will express without having to talk." "I searched for a language of its own and I think that little by little I've been finding.
