Statement
I don't consider my work as art. Instead I believe they are just projects and immediate actions that generate strong meanings.
When I do these type of works I don't think in the consequences that they may have nor in the moral or ethic considerations involved. I don't follow a specific methodology, I just let the action go on and let it define its own way. What I'm really interested in is an initial idea that can talk about a specific context and the conditions in which it is developed, I just consider feasible those works with character and that somehow have an effect on the spectator, the rest is useless.
