He developed important projects for galleries, museums and institutions in Switzerland, France, Spain, Chile, Argentina, Venezuela, Germany, Slovenia, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania and Brazil, among others. His work highlights the systems that govern the planet, social irregularities and differences, power and general control. With a disenchanted gaze, his works constantly oscillate between the human being and the machine, the individual and the mass or nature and technology. His productions have in common the aesthetics of dystopia, with which he describes the condition of contemporary societies in a state of ruin. Since 2012 he has worked with the Xippas gallery in Paris, Punta del Este and Geneva.
