About me
Hi! I am a London based Galician and Colombian artist who’s practice focuses on the Ethnobotany of the Amazon. It also highlights and honours the wonderful indigenous people who have preserved ceremonies, plants, and culture through the toughest of times. Through my practice I am aim to find who I am and where I fit in- I do this in the context of my mixed identity by stripping myself back to my roots. I am a dependable arts undergraduate student with great people skills and a big personality to match. My international background has helped me easily relate with people from all walks of life, as a result of growing up in different areas and countries I am a polyglot and a culturally sensitive individual My fine arts background has allowed me to have a creative approach to problem solving and has given me a great eye for detail. Thanks to this experience, I also work well with tight deadlines and fast paced environments, and can cater to any client vision.
