Through an interdisciplinary practice that includes video, installation, audio, performance, among other mediums, I look to expose the power dynamics between institutions and the individual & collective social experience in relation to the body. By questioning the norms and established protocols of social life, my work explores how we think about institutions from an individual and collective experience and how this relationship can have political and social repercussions. Furthermore, within my work tension is at the heart of each piece. It is through opposing, or contradictory concepts and/or realities that I look to communicate the intangible uncomfortability of social life. Born in a Mexican conservative catholic city and having to endure over a dozen plastic reconstructive surgeries since the age of 5, my biography is the drive and motivation behind my practice but not always the main focus. Rather, these experiences function as a looking glass towards questions on how institutions hold power over the body and our perception of the self.
