My DNA
No two humans, regardless of their origin and evolution, can ever be identical. In a world of 6 billion people, not a single one of us is a duplicate. Scientists call this DNA, that double helix that our genes are made of tells the unique story of our beginnings on this earth.
The science of DNA has always fascinated me. The microscope however was never the canvas I yearned to work with. And so, from an early age, I set out to recreate my own story using paint and a brush.
Painting has always been the bridge connecting my past and present. Each stroke tells my story. From the young girl growing up in Bogotá, Colombia to the teenager who gave it all up to pursue her dreams in the United States.
Through my work, I invite you to trace my life back to it's origin and reflect on what your life would look like if expressed on a canvas.
