As an Art Educator, I've been inspired by the impact we can achieve through collaboration with the students.
The studio's purpose is to create courses to learn creative skills and use them to impact social and environmental healing.
I hold a Master Degree in Fine Arts from the Universidad Autonoma de México and residencies a l’École National Superièure des Arts Décoratifs and the Goyang residency at the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art of Seoul.
The purpose of my courses is for artists and creative people:
a) to learn and improve their tools to express what matters most to them.
b) To find their own artistic language and embrace what makes them remarkable.
c) To use their empathic storytelling to ignite ideological long term positive cultural changes.
d) To provoke active direct impact to affect and improve their communities through social and environmental healing.
My greatest satisfaction as an educator is to see my students awaken to the possibilities that their talent and creativity offers them to make a difference.
Topics: Photography technique, creative process, creation for Impact: creating art with social/environmental content, environmental and conceptual portraiture, conceptual photography.

How can I access the courses: Courses can be adapted to each institution or school curriculum.
