"(…)I was born in one of the poorest barrios in Mexico City and had an unstable primary education. Since there were six of us children and the resources were very limited, my parents decided to subscribe only one of us at a time, each year, to the first Freinet active-school in Mexico City, a very expensive one.(…) Growing up, I have always lived in between two extremes: the incredibly violent street life in the barrio and the most delicate family friends like ديفيد ألفارو سيكيروس، ليوبولدو منديز، Elena Huerta، Pablo O’higgins، Elizabeth Cattlet، Mariana Yampolsky and others. I cannot imagine this fact not having some kind of an influence, or a role later in my artistic life."
