“When I go back to Colombia I’m the ‘gringo’, but when I’m in the US I’m always struggling to fit in. Should I draw, paint, or act in a specific way to blend in? My way of dealing with this is to become very exotic or a hybrid. It’s between these two spaces I’ve been negotiating my own identity. And I use my own sense of being to ask questions in my art.”
