Hace dos veranos, durante mi estadia en el las tierras altas del norte de
california, los bosques de Sequoias, inspiro una coleccion de obras con el
nombre de "La Hermandad de la Sequoia." Influenciado por el lugar, utilice este tiempo para pensar en conceptos tales como "vision, " "percepcion" y "perspectiva, " y descubrir las implicaciones filosoficas que pudiera tener la busqueda de el tiempo/soledad en mi. Emprendi una tarea estetica del "Buscar y Encontrar" un viaje pictorico en un compromiso mas profundo con mi proceso como artista y algunas nuevas ideas sobre los conceptos de "el destino, " "destino" e "identidad." Ahora presento esta coleccion de pinturas por primera vez en Guadalajara.
