Sculpture, ceramics, crochet, crafting, and performance

New York City

  • I love digital fabrication and incorporating CNC/laser processes in my personal work
  • I enjoy learning about Latin Caribbean culture. The pieces I create stem from history, research, and family.
  • I draw in my sketchbook almost everyday.

I am a Puerto Rican interdisciplinary artist from the Bronx. I'm currently working towards my BFA in Sculpture at SUNY Purchase, and I'll graduate in May 2026. I love working in different mediums, practicing my skills, and sharing the knowledge I gain about art.
