Community Project

Sesiones interestelares- Comunidad de Río Grande . COBAO No. 25
The project’s objective was to generate questions and reflections on topics such as human existence and the different points of view about the possibility of extraterrestrial life forms. Another purpose was to stimulate expression and dialogue using music as an interlocutor vehicle. These objectives were achieved through musical sessions framed by the strange and fascinating architecture of Casa Wabi, as well as the sounds of nature that accompany it.

Lives and works in Mexico City

(Mexico City, 1980) Visual artist, lives and works in Mexico City.
His work sets off from the personal anecdote and the autobiographical tale, where the appropriation of images and objects transforms into gestures that make the viewer – through the use of humour – reflect on how certain acts lack of autonomy: chance, as well as the nonsensical aspect of the everyday life.
Graduated from industrial design in the year 2000, he later took part at the SOMA programme between 2012 and 2014 (Mexico City). He has been exhibiting individually since 2005, being the most important among “Project Room” (2010) Vice Gallery, Mexico City; “Tired, Hungry, Horny, Hungover, Happy, Sad & Pissed Off”, (2011) Garash Galería, Mexico City; “Protección contra el destino y otros interesantes títulos de la colección” (2013) in Galería Machete, Mexico City; and “¡Señor! ¿Qué es la vida?” Cuarto de proyectos from SOMA, Mexico City.
Among his collective exhibitions are “Ni somos todos los que estamos” (2010) MUCA Roma, Mexico City; “No sombrero” (2011) at Poetry Club, N.Y., U.S.A.; “Global Village Projekt” 072 (2012) Alkmaar, Holand; Chateau de Sully, France and Kulturhuset Bronden, Copenhagen, Denmark.
