Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
This work was inspired by a turtle sanctuary in Colombia and its title is inspired by the region's oral tradition. The leatherback or caná turtle is the largest turtle in the world. They used to be found in all oceans except the Arctic and Antarctic but their populations have declined due to harvesting of their eggs, industrial fishing and plastic pollution. On the Caribbean coast of Colombia's Chocó, there are more than 400 families that have been caring for and monitoring caná turtle nests for more than 20 years in the municipality of Acandí. The communities of this region speak of a being who protects fish and small fauna: el Indio del Agua. He is an Indian with long, thick hair. He has large eyes of reddish color and intense brightness, which serve to illuminate the bottom of the rivers and streams where he dwells. The water Indian also protects these turtles.

I am a Colombian artist living in Barcelona. Through art I have been able to connect with the landscapes and culture of my ancestors. I re-imagine Latin American art through historical figures, legends, landscapes and symbology inspired by the iconography of pre-Hispanic goldsmith masters. I am inspired by the revival of historical memory, the wisdom of indigenous cosmovisions and nature. My work frequently transforms landscapes into relief engravings with metallic colors that represent the mineral richness of the earth. For the last four years I have been managing Casa Jaguar /@casajaguar.studio/, an art studio in Barcelona where I collaborate with other Colombian audiovisual artists with whom I share my interest in developing a visual language that integrates pre-Hispanic art with contemporary art.
