CURRENT MISSION

Live to tell the story...

ABOUT ME

*(After TWO years living in Paris an update was due..My Graphic web designer route may have a happy detour or something like that in the near future. More updates to come soon...)

Two more years have passed, and i'm still here, on full Production for my first documentary film... and I am very happy. I'm finishing my Cinema studies (yes, I went that way) here in Paris and some new opportunities have appeared, so we'll see...we'll talk it over some beers if we ever meet up.

_____________________________________ ______ ________

I come from a Family of Sculptors native in my country, Chile. WE have our Atelier, "ARTEROMAN", which is almost 90 years old and now part of Art tradition in Chile.

But, if I had to choose from one of all my activities, it´d definitely would be Music. Being a part of these couple of bands (see my pics), has offered the opportunity, not just to get to know my own country through touring, but also quite a bit of the West and Central part of Europe.

WELL, WHY I AM IN PARIS?

...AS i said, I´m a Graphic web Designer, also a Sculptor and a Musician for some bands in Chile. One of which I'd tour Europe back in 2005 through Spain, France, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Holland, Belgium...Hopefully i can develop, if not all, some of the activities I´ve done in my country.

PHILOSOPHY

Turn off the computer, go out GODdamn it!!!!

La vida sería muy injusta si uno se hiciera viejo, y no aprendieras nada en el camino.
