I was born on February 19, 1987 in Nemocón, Cundinamarca, Colombia. Since I was 14 years old I have written graffiti and executed art projects in the public space under the pseudonyms Cazdos and Word in the streets of Bogotá and other cities around the world.
I´m a Master in fine arts from the Universidad de Los Andes. I am currently studying the fourth and final thesis seminar in the Master in History of Art, Architecture and the City at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia.
I have specialized in weaving the urban history area with the plastic arts. I focus my work in develop the tensions of city throught the performance and street walk like an aesthetic form of knowledge, in this way graffiti action is for me an a prosthesis that give me tools to explore the public space in multiple sence. And the other hand, i am interested in the Landscape like theme and motive in a lot of studio works, where I work in painting, fine art drawing, and in-situ instalations.
