    Description

    I am a sculptor and I live in the middle of the Prado Tolima dam, it is a space full of nature, where biodiversity, culture and history are combined. There is a great variety of birds and more than four thousand hectares of water for water sports. In this magical place, I am making sculptures, cabins and paths alluding to indigenous communities that live in this area, the idea is to represent through art, all their ethnic culture. The average temperature is 30°C. It is hot land and there are many mosquitoes at night.
