“This painting illuminates the variability of identity for victim and aggressor -an agent who disassociated from her or his own identity- and the complexity of the assessment of guilt.”

“Spontaneous ragey overreaction to junkie thievery and how heroin can transform good people into absolute assholes.”

#TheHighLife,  calls attention to sweeping statements and misinformation in American culture, and how these influences shape contemporary thought while employing satire and kitsch to historicize the present era. The cushion, adorned with golden tassels with a kitschy object, references the opulence of the monarchy and the excesses associated with the 1%.  Specifically issues such as corruption, social and international espionage, and patriarchy concerning our current times.

The piece is, among the obvious, a game with the narco language, the Medellín mafia language, which recently became popular with the Netflix series. Parce or parcero is what they say to the “panas”, to the “keys” to the close ones, and today it is popular, but its origin is in the “parlache” of the “magical” underworld of the eighties in Medellín. The play on words is clear by mixing this with the English “parcel”, for parcel sent by mail.

Antonin Artaud is a kind of school case, he falls into several categories, having experienced peyote with Tarahumaras and abusive drugs administered by psychiatrists of the time. These abusive treatments continue today, leading to depersonalization and loss of consciousness. It’s another way to zombifie people, legally.

My intention  with this short film is to try to describe loneliness caused by the pressure of social and political mechanisms, frustration due to speed of communication, information and all forms of hyperexpression.
We are forced to fully express ourselves all the time, repression is replaced by panic which is a psychopathological state in which the brain needs to be hyperstimulated sometimes people are more and more in need for “pain”-relieving support all those states makes us feel more empty and lonely.

“Healing Altar, Toba” is a devotional installation that references the poppy seed as a symbol used in ceremonies to convey the imagination, the regeneration and the power of transformation of our time.

This work is part of a project that explores ancient symbolism, pre-Columbian identities and ecological transformation in the Americas.

Our social drug  interaction and joint creative endeavors make our  art and music alive. We wish to address the current existing craziness so this period of taking drugs creates the destruction of instruments symbolizing the disintegration of our normal lives and fragments of change comes fast.

This artwork is about how drugs can give someone the false illusion of happiness. At its core, they provide an escape from reality. Narcotics can give a feeling of creativity, or beauty or even strength. but that is always fleeting. Drugs have been used as a movement and a culture. People felt like they were doing something that made them different. Everyone thinks they can control the drugs, but unfortunately for some, the drugs are always in control. There is a very fine line between using for fun or inspiration and crossing that line into a world where you are forever changed. That same illusion of happiness also leads to extremes and a sense of loss. So, each time there is a desire to chase the illusion and get back to that feeling of being special. In my artwork I show scenes from a joyful party full of young people. They are dancing and having fun but the images are not complete. They only show happiness. However, what is not shown are the dark undertones as that happiness quickly fades.

The images presented are photos of a three dimension Dreamland,  Model Home project for children, that is massively industrially produced as a toy for children,  the three dimensions model home, was found abandoned in the street of Brookly it has been slightly modified as I’ve been remaking it. There is an intimate conexion within the notion of what private space means, home, and at the same time biggest challenges in Architecture like developments in certain areas of the city are presented with small  Model projects in scale. I found a strong conexion with big money The Real State Mafia and Drug Cartel Mafia.

Robert Boyd’s “Alphaville Redux,” 2019, is a single-channel video that excerpts visual symbols from Jean-Luc Godard’s 1965 futuristic sci-fi noir, “Alphaville,” to depict a technocratic dystopia of surveillance and control.

The piece starts with me taking my blood pressure. Then I perform the song/poem which has a low volume backing musical track. If there is no way to play an audio file in the space, then I’ll perform it live without the backing track, though will be better with it. The song/poem is an alphabetical tribute to the terminology and drugs that are applied to the body during the time of human reproduction. I am currently pregnant, so it’s apropos.

This video process constructed by images was born en september 2019 when I started to  play with the image and a syringe… As we are correlated to the image and creation it becomes the concept of vaccinaction… A performance and un extension of the body throught a work of art… (This is what I can say now of this work)
