About The Artwork

"La Laguna de Bachué" (2023) acrylic, collage and printmaking on canvas. The Muisca people believe that a Muisca fucha (woman) named Bachué emerged from the Iguaque lake, in the center of what is now Colombia, and populated the earth giving birth to her people. In the Muisca worldview, the origin of humanity is in the lake: both in Bachué's lagoon and in the lagoon from which we all come from when we are in our mother's womb. Water is our source of life because we all come from it without exception.

I am a Colombian artist living in Barcelona. Through art I have been able to connect with the landscapes and culture of my ancestors. I re-imagine Latin American art through historical figures, legends, landscapes and symbology inspired by the iconography of pre-Hispanic goldsmith masters. I am inspired by the revival of historical memory, the wisdom of indigenous cosmovisions and nature. My work frequently transforms landscapes into relief engravings with metallic colors that represent the mineral richness of the earth. For the last four years I have been managing Casa Jaguar /@casajaguar.studio/, an art studio in Barcelona where I collaborate with other Colombian audiovisual artists with whom I share my interest in developing a visual language that integrates pre-Hispanic art with contemporary art.
