I am a transdisciplinary artist working across installation, sculpture, photography, painting, and drawing. Grounded in the socio-economic and historical layers of Puerto Rico, I work with symbols, colloquial iconographies, and found or discarded materials to trace the legacies of colonial extraction and cultural exchange. These materials function as salvaged fragments marked by circulation, labor, and abandonment through which I challenge narratives of a disempowered island and propose alternative histories of representation and survival. By recontextualizing architectural remnants, I interrogate systems of value and power embedded in built environments. My work approaches Puerto Rico’s liminal political condition as a site of friction and possibility, exploring resilience, ecology, and diasporic identity within postcolonial space.
