My creative path, with stories that inspire my work.
I live and work in a luminous apartment in the south of Mexico City with my cat, Muna. The exposed cement and yellow brick building is surrounded by quaint houses, parks, theaters and modern buildings. The San José Insurgentes neighborhood was created in the 1930’s and was home to actress María Felix and singer Jorge Negrete.
I always carry a notebook. I've learnt that most ideas are worth exploring, so I capture them with a simple line drawing that I can later interpret into a three dimensional piece.
I construct each piece of jewelry using traditional forging and soldering techniques. My raw materials are sterling silver sheet and wire recycled from X-rays and photographic processes.
I sell every piece I make in my online shop, where you can safely pay with any bank card using Paypal. I add new one-of-a-kind pieces bi-monthly, and ship to most parts of the world via UPS.
Visit my online journal to read the stories that inspire my work, learn from my creative challenges, and see how each idea develops into a finished piece.
I've created an online space to showcase every piece I've made since I became a jeweler fifteen years ago. As an artist, it helps to know that I am working on a large body of work in order to get through the highs and lows of the creative process.
I have separated my work into eight galleries so that they load faster. You can see previews below, and access each full gallery by clicking on the button links.
I draw what I see in visions and dreams. I use silver ink on black paper to emphasize lines and play with positive and negative space.
