To be a Biologist offered me good opportunities of learning about the fascinating world of wildlife in the country were I was born –Colombia, South America. I have been in laboratories looking at pollen under the microscope and in the wildness where I have been observing how nature behaves and fits into our planet.
Today, as a new media artist I want to contribute to environmental education using video and music installations to understand and enjoy how natural Earth processes can happen. It is especially attractive for me integrate several disciplines and incorporate palaeoecological information to produce visually rich simulations. But also I am fascinated with Environmental Art, Eco Art and Land Art as a way to give beautiful and real solutions in restoration of Ecosystems.
Eco Art, Land Art, Nano Art, Climate Change, Past Ecosystems, Actual Ecosystems, Restoration of Ecosystems, Animation of Landscapes, Arts Science Conciousness, Biomimicry, Museum ArtSci Installations, Photography, Video Documentation, Film.
