I have to keep painting to feel alive, to feel active." "When the pandemic began I lost a daughter. My wife was pregnant, the baby was born and 12 hours later she died." "I immediately ended up falling very ill due to a serious lung disease" "Although I come from a poor origin, from the periphery, from a simple place, with all the possibilities that were open to me of crime, violence, drugs and various other things, my interest in the streets was always in the sense of art" "I never followed this path (of art) for financial reasons or recognition. I continue painting because that is in me, it is part of who I am. Painting is my hobby, my passion, what makes me happy".
