As a young girl I would spend long hours in my brother’s studio watching him make paintings, sketches, and other works of art, as well as learning from him, and making some myself. I grew up spending most of my time visiting museums, galleries and studios with him and becoming immersed in the world of visual art with a strong preference for the medieval and post modern periods. My brother’s name was Charles and he was and remains my muse, and source of sacred fire. When I first set out to work on something creative of my own, I chose fashion design; I loved doing this and owned my own line for more than a decade in Buenos Aires, Argentina. My brother passed away and I went through long and thorough grieving. I changed my path, or maybe my path changed me. I moved from Buenos Aires and went back to school. I graduated in 2003, from Columbia University, with a degree in Visual Arts. It became so very obvious that my passion was art and that I might take on what Charles had left behind. For the past ten years I have been making paintings, sculptures and installations of different types—video and sculptural. I hope that my pieces speak for themselves however have learned to at least attempt a description: My style is stripped bare to what I see as the minimum possible build up of technique or what we call skill. I wish to convey a thought or emotion in a simple and immediate manner—a style that anyone could read and understand, a bit like an illustrative or representative graffiti, street mural, or bold advertisement. I believe in the new and attempt to come up with visual imagery which embodies the new.
