About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn new thing and make new things. To help and live the people that surround me. And to eat and dance as much as I possibly can.

ABOUT ME

I'm an artist and arts organizer from the border (Tijuana - San Diego). I recently lived in New York for a bit, and Los Angeles before that. I love home and being away from it. I enjoy going places, seeing things, and taking many pictures. There are many things I still need to try, but I am prone to enjoyment. I like movies, food, dancing, and puppies.

I organize Tijuana Zine Fest (https://www.facebook.com/tjzinefest/) and make visual work in illustration, photography, and installation art (https://www.instagram.com/todobuenooo/).

PHILOSOPHY

I believe caring for one another and asking for help are the most subversive and necessary acts one can carry out.
