About the artist

I grew up between Uruguay and San Telmo, Buenos Aires — a neighbourhood of cobblestone streets, antique markets, and walls covered in art. That world shaped me before I could name it. I learned to love lost objects: the thrill of flea markets and artisan fairs, the particular pleasure of finding something that carries history, that exists outside the logic of trends. An object whose value isn't about fashion — it's about being unrepeatable.
I spent my nights drawing, reading, painting, looking for something I couldn't quite articulate yet.
I've always been drawn to the inner life. Meditation became a practice, then a lens — a way of paying attention to what's underneath. Not the noise, but the quiet thing beneath it.
Now I live in Málaga, making ceramic figures and paintings that come from that same place. Pieces that don't just sit on a shelf — that ask something of you. That reflect something back.
I make Chundra because I believe most of us carry more wisdom than we think. We've just learned to look for answers everywhere except inside. These pieces are an invitation to stop looking outward for a moment. To remember what you already know.

Why I make art

We live surrounded by voices telling us what we lack. The market sells us answers. The noise convinces us that what we need is always outside, always ahead, always in someone else. And so, little by little, we stop listening to ourselves.
Chundra is born from the conviction that this inner voice doesn't disappear — it only goes quiet. That inside each of us lives a wisdom older than urgency, deeper than anxiety. A steady place from which to inhabit the world without getting lost in it.
My pieces are figures that know that place. They are not perfect, not distant — they are strange the way all true things are strange. They are made so that something in you recognises them. Not to decorate. To remember.
Because when you find your own centre, it's not only you who benefits. Something of that spills outward — toward others, toward the common space we all share. To be well is, in some way, to do good.
Find the wise one within you.

Vision

Vivimos rodeados de voces que nos dicen lo que nos falta.
El mercado nos vende respuestas. El ruido nos convence de que lo que necesitamos está siempre afuera, siempre adelante, siempre en otro. Y así, de a poco, dejamos de escucharnos.
Chundra nace de la convicción de que esa voz interior no desaparece — solo se silencia. Que dentro de cada persona hay una sabiduría más antigua que el apuro, más profunda que la ansiedad. Un lugar firme desde donde habitar el mundo sin perderse en él.
Mis piezas son figuras que conocen ese lugar. No son perfectas ni ajenas — son extrañas como lo es todo lo verdadero. Están hechas para que algo en vos las reconozca. No para decorar. Para recordar.
Porque cuando encontrás tu propio centro, no solo estás mejor vos. Algo de eso se desprende hacia afuera, hacia los otros, hacia el espacio común que todos compartimos. Estar bien es, en algún punto, hacer el bien.
Encontrá tu sabio interior.
