His mastery of chiaroscuro creates an ethereal atmosphere that draws the viewer into a surreal and dreamlike world while providing a powerful commentary on history, heritage and societal constructs.

He has been concerned about the effects of modernization and progress not only on natural environments, but mostly on Latin American culture and its ways of being displayed internationally through stereotypes and common places.
