This exhibition brought together artists from Mexico, the USA, Perú and Indonesia who explore the environment as both an individual and collective construct, questioning human presence and absence within the spaces we inhabit. Through diverse practices—ranging from drawing and sculpture to agriculture—the artists examine the contradictions between our ecological ideals and actions. By understanding the ecosystem as a living network of relationships between human and non-human elements, the exhibition invites viewers to acknowledge existing damage, assume responsibility, and imagine the potential for repair.
Artists: Alan Hernández, Dell Alvarado, Gabriel Rivera, Julio Barrita, Lucía Novoa Gil, Marco Antonio Velasco, Miguel Cinta Robles, Nahún Saldaña, Rennie Jones, Espacio Lalitho, Santiago Rojo, Yatiní Domínguez, Panósmico, Nani Ratnawati.

The exhibition Que Conste/For The Record at Highpoint Center for Printmaking brought together the work of eight Oaxacan artists working in different disciplines. Utilizing print as an opportunity to unite their practice and voice, the artists connected around a shared desire to communicate the rapid transformations of their territory, city, and home. This exhibition challenged the limits of the medium stemming from possibilities provided by language, playing with the translation and definitions of print from English printmaking to Spanish grabado (recorded or engraved).
Artists: José Ángel Santiago, Ana Hernández, Marco Velasco Martínez, Yatiní Domínguez, Evelyn Méndez Maldonado, Santiago Rojo, Adriana Monterrubio, Alicia Jiménez.

Between 2019 and 2020, I co-directed La Señora, an independent gallery space in Oaxaca dedicated to exhibiting the work of local and international artists. The project served as a meeting point for the artistic community, offering a continuous program of exhibitions, workshops, and public film screenings. Through a collaborative and self-managed practice, La Señora sought to foster exchange across artistic disciplines and contexts, and to explore alternative forms of production, dialogue, and cultural participation.

For over five years, I served as Program Director at Pocoapoco, where I helped shape the organization’s growth and day-to-day life. My work spanned program design and execution, fundraising, administration, and residency management, while also curating exhibitions and public programs in Oaxaca and abroad. A big part of my role was acting as a bridge between the organization and the artists—supporting them as a liaison, building community, and creating meaningful spaces for dialogue and collaboration.

Structured as a residency-learning program, Sur o No Sur creates a supportive and intuitive space for artistic exchange free from the pressures of daily production and the constraints of traditional institutions. The program centers forms of knowledge rooted in our communities, histories, and territories, while actively questioning how we—and our work—can exist, shift, and evolve within and beyond established forms.

During my time in New York, I played an active role in advancing the cultural diplomacy efforts of the Consulate General of Mexico by curating and producing over 30 exhibitions and public programs that strengthened the presence of Mexican art and artists across the Tri-state area. Through collaborations with institutions such as MoMA, The Met, and The New Museum, I helped build bridges between Mexican and U.S. cultural communities. My work also involved creating and adapting bilingual content that both resonated with U.S. audiences and provided a meaningful space for the Mexican community to feel represented, connected, and seen.
