ART
Building pathways of meaning through the analysis of critical discourse and the visual re-construction of reasons and sensations.
"My artistic practice is based on the concepts of space and perception as well as women’s evolving social condition. Within my work I question the body’s relationship with space, acknowledging it as the first ontological form of a known self-referential architecture to sustain a dynamic condition, and a conscious relationship with landscape and its unknowns. Through my work I intend to express a synchronic visual narrative to produce an experience, presented as real through the sites (virtual or material) at the moment (time) the piece exist. The articulated artistic space, as a form of expression, enables the possibility to generate a conceptual-specific reality to study meaning and spatial transformations as a continuous state of the cultural phenomena that its revealed as a product of interactions, but above all differences." -AC

EXHIBITIONS
Since 2010
I'm just curious!
Since 2010 I have been participating in collective and solo shows. Attracted to the difference of things, emotions, sensations and light my practice has been under development since I was 2 years old with the help of my late aunt, the artist Carmen Collazo - from whom I learned to stay curious.

"CONNECTED"
Conectados (2015) | Movement | Body | Space | Technology
As we are born, our first introduction to space is our body. Space becomes a place of possibilities as we identify how to expand the meaning of our senses within it. As we produce, we become embedded with circumstance elevating our need of knowledge to become free. But what does it mean to be free? In this era, we are producers of stories, property and meaning. Towards what end can we live vicariously or in a never-ending pursuit of unachievable satisfactions. When does technology simply signifies the benign? It is our flowing, liquid self, organized in codes of thought that enable the baste of an ever construction of emergent reality with otherness.
