Andean mountains, rivers and lakes have ancient histories and, as such, they are extremely rich in mythology and receive constant, eternal rituals by the peoples who inhabit their surroundings. I was born in the city of La Paz, at the foot of Illimani, and from early childhood have marveled upon the myths created about and the rites offered to the mountains around me. My approach combines the disciplines of anthropology and visual arts through an exploration of myths, memories and dreams. 
After decades of an anthropological professional career in Bolivia and the UK, I have taught myself to draw, paint and sculpt, mostly inspired by my hometown’s landscapes. Missing them during a prolonged residence overseas, their recurrent presence in dreams and memories inspired me to re-imagine and paint Bolivian mountains, lakes and salt flats, all of which will be showed as a monumental ‘mosaic’ of canvases (acrylic) depicting Andean Dreamscapes.
