Cookie cutter: The labyrinthine idea here is to present three architects who have marked the modernist period with three of their major buildings and three texts about their work but all mixed up by the cookie cutter. The viewer has to study the three prints to get the idea.

The library of BabylonThe idea is similar to the cookie cutter series. The prints present two
partial but complementary images, provoking the viewer to make links in order to understand the content. The correspondence is only partial; it has omissions, distortions and transfigurations. The title is taken from a short story by Jorge Luis Borges, describing a labyrinthine place where all
books about all books are present so that it becomes virtually impossible to get any information

Train labyrinth with ladders: Labyrinths in history have established forms. This is a new fun kind of labyrinth drawing combining artifacts of horizontal and vertical dimensions, that is, the train tracks and the ladders

Urban image: A highly stylized spatial image with urban nocturnal overtones
