Self-portrait. 2025.

I've been a bit lost these last few weeks. I'm trying to make sense of the present.

On September 11, 1973, the United States staged a coup against Chile's democratically elected president, Salvador Allende, in order to install the fascist dictator Augusto Pinochet.

¡Viva Salvador Allende!

A digital work based on a photograph I took of a painting on my ex's door. It was the first time I saw him since he left Mexico City for the beach.

Said. Mexico City, 2025.

Said is an old friend of mine. He lives in Mexico City but is originally from Guerrero. He is one of those warriors who has experienced several difficult personal moments. I wanted to create portraits that capture her strength despite the ups and downs.

The entire series is based on the idea of isolation, which has been exacerbated by digitalisation and hyperconnectivity. It depicts our representation from the perspective of another dimension, where we are avatars in a more advanced simulation.

Pocholito, 2022.

This is a 3D photograph, which is part of a series of digital pieces that I started creating in 2022. When the file is embedded in a website, you can navigate the full image, rotate it and zoom in to see the details.

Aww I'm on @attitudemag.bsky.social 😲

Last year Liam invited me to appear in the Elska issue @elskamagazine.bsky.social of Mexico City.

I obviously said yes. I luv that magazine, the way he so naturally portrays and shares the pulse of different cities.

I had just returned to Guadalajara from Mexico City, where I felt confident and free to expand the series of portraits now here.

I was exploring concepts of belonging, geographical and social, of how the game tells us we have to act in certain environments. In the photographs Said.

3D portrait of Jalil.

I began creating three-dimensional portraits in 2022 using photogrammetry. Since then, I have created several portraits, most of which are stored on my hard drive.

These pieces can be viewed and analyzed interactively in 360° in hi-res.

Santino, Guadalajara 2023.

Every opportunity to photograph is also an immersion into the person, their dreams, their present and their context.

I've rarely encountered someone with a determined gaze and attitude. This photo was a projection from the past to the Santino of today.

Juan in Mexico City. 2025.

We took this photo earlier this year. Juan is Mexican-Venezuelan, raised in Guadalajara.

This photo is part of a series of portraits featuring guys versus the system. I seek to capture the journey toward the desired self and its ups and downs.

⚠️🔥 Tool (offensive) for artists against AI training models!

A new tool allows artists to "poison" their work, sabotaging AI models that use it by corrupting the training data.

This prevents AI companies from using it. And the tool is free. nightshade.cs.uchicago.edu

Much of the internal United States' problem will be solved when presidential immunity and pardons are eliminated.

And the law is applied equally.
