Traductor is a series of five small works based on the idea of a universal translator for all of humanity. Each of these works depicts Five basic things every human on earth needs to survive, with a visual statement on how we've changed them to suit our own needs for better or worse.

From a simple hut to keep us safe from the elements to a Miami mega-mansion are just a few of the images that construe this idea.

Each piece is created using mixed media collage techniques, hand drawings, paint, and 3d sculpture mounted on hand-stretched canvas. Combined, these methods make a compelling image come alive.


These works were featured in an exhibition on June 5, 2021, at the Rochester Contemporary Art Center, Rochester, NY. The show was well received and three pieces were sold during the exhibit.
