Who are you most inspired by?
My sister. She’s the reason I’ve hopped on the creative boat to start with and the only one I can resonate rely on for creative advice.
2
What do you want to most convey in your work?
I want to have instilled all my pieces with some of what I have felt in this world so far. I’m always trying to understand things and become a better human being, whatever that means, and my work is a reflection of my identity.
3
When did you first realize you are an artist?
When I realized I wanted to bury my thoughts in existentialism.
4
Why do you choose the subject matter you work with?
Well with the Childhoood series I really wanted to make something very personal and maybe find things about myself and how I honestly felt about things that surround my life; my sister, my creativity, and my position in society (I’m really weird I’m 1/2 phillipino and 1/2 Chilean but I was born and raised in Brazil). Although the latter is not really included in my work I like to think the void spaces and separation of figures on the surface give space to these invisible ambiguities.
5
Where do you go when your well of inspiration is running low?
When I’m running low in inspiration I usually blame that on a poorly stimulated brain. So I try to read books that are hard to read, solve puzzle games, or sketch away in my sketchbook hoping things will come together. But I make sure I’m never inactive because that can pile and create a huge block in making the work.

What is your greatest artistic weakness?
I’m way too self absorbed to notice anything else and unless reminded of I will not read about other artists or the art world.
7
How would your life change if you were no longer allowed to create art?
I would have to stay in bed starve myself until I die and hope for a quick resurrection.

My parents divorce.
My self-destructiveness.

What/who gave you the extra push to “go public” with your work?
Van Gogh.
10asked by alex sheehan
Do you make a choice and then justify it? Or do you visualize something and then create it?
I like this question! I make choices and I believe they will always be justifiable no matter how dumb the reason. I think the more you make choices the more you can learn about yourself and the less idealistic the work will be. AUTHENTICITY MAN!
11
What ways do you find your life influences your work?
Both are directly correlated. I won’t budge if I don’t feel so having an active life definitely motivates me to work on myself which in turn makes me create more work.

How do you know when you are finished with a work?
When it tells me it doesn’t feel ugly anymore. Some look really ugly but they tell me they don’t feel ugly so I let them hang out in the living room for a few days until I figure out why they were not so ugly.
13
What new artists or works excite you?
Nothing really excites me but I do appreciate aspects of a lot of artists work like Mark Ryden and that guy that made the huge bunny in the middle of nowhere in which you can lie on. But there’s nobody that’s alive that I’m dying to meet or be like. I like Duchamp
