Artist statement:
From the outset of my professional journey, I have actively engaged with the LGBTQI community. I dedicated my time as a volunteer for the amfAR Foundation in Madrid and Paris and also contributed to prominent Queer Magazines such as Zero and Orientaciones in Spain. My artistic creations have graced the pages of numerous books and publications, sharing space with icons like Tom of Finland and David Hockney, as well as esteemed writers such as José Saramago, Rafael Alberti, and Leopoldo Alas. Additionally, I played a role in editing the magazine SIGNOS.
