"And he is presenting a very interesting work in which he integrates some pre-Hispanic elements of pre-Hispanic codex in his paintings. Some of the colors also are from those that are integrated and its an interesting technique. He is mostly doing oil on canvas."

"Through his figurative style we will see some images of urban spaces and at the same time some of this traditional plants in Mexico the "agave" where you extract the tequila and so you also served those kinds of images and some of the paintings for example integrate images of schools that in Mexican tradition/culture is something that is integrated especially at the "day of the dead." We are going to see all these elements integrated or incorporated in some of his paintings."

The exhibition will remain open until July fourth. It is traveling throughout Central America.
