Panamericana – Solo show in Hamburg at RFI Gallery
Opening 27.07. Exhibition from 28.07 until 26.08.2023

Panamericana is a Book Project which aims to weave together travel diary, family stories about exile and loss.
»Panamericana is the road that crosses America from Alaska to Patagonia. A part of it I traveled every summer from Arica to Santiago (2000 km) by bus or car.
This journey through the Atacama Desert is the setting of a fragmented story that reflects on identity, family, the journey as a process and the desire to belong.«



Criaturas y Territorios – Exhibition at El Diluvio Universal Shop/Gallery in Barcelona. from 14.04 – 15.05.23


Collective show together with Johanna Schmal and Valerio Vidali at Segunda Galería in Bilbao, Spain. 2022

The series of drawings Kamanchaka (darkness in Aymara) is inspired by the journeys of scientists, botanists and fortune hunters who travelled to extreme areas at the end of the 18th century in search of new civilisations. There they were confronted not only with the difficulties of the rugged geography, but also with a new paradigm.

The drawings attempt to scrutinise this confrontation with the unknown through everyday scenes with the same fascination of someone opening their eyes to a new world.
