“Mi obra responde a los aparentes anacronismos de haber crecido en Puerto Rico, la colonia más antigua del mundo y el país con más autos por milla cuadrada. La formación Católica Romana ha jugado un papel crucial en informar mi trabajo. Estas pinturas exploran la relación entre los íconos cristianos tradicionales y nuestra sociedad moderna de consumo. Presentan un mundo donde la espiritualidad es consumida por la trivialidad mientras que los símbolos religiosos pierden mucho de su significado original al ser convertidos por la cultura de los medios en mercancía desechable”.

“My work responds to consumer media culture and the historical use of Christian icons in colonial Latin America . As a painter, growing up in Puerto Rico , one of the oldest colonies in the world and at the same time one of the countries with most cars per square mile, I explore the relationship between traditional icons and our modern day consumer society. The paintings project a world filled with unexpected anachronisms where spirituality is transgressed by triviality. Religious symbols loose their original meaning and are amorally converted into disposable marketplace products from the Media culture”.
