The works created with this technique stem from a deep respect for nature and the conviction that materials can be transformed without losing their essence. Each piece is made from recycled wood, selected for its organic forms, natural grain, and imperfections, which are not hidden but integrated as an essential part of the visual narrative.
 
The wood is carved and then painted, allowing the artistic gesture to engage with the material's own history. The natural forms of the wood guide the composition, giving rise to scenes that evoke protection, growth, and connection to the earth.
 
As a symbolic and aesthetic contrast, the artist incorporates aluminum in elements such as leaves and natural details. This material, of industrial origin, is reinterpreted within the work as a symbol of light, renewal, and balance between the natural and the human. The union of wood and metal reinforces the message of sustainability and conscious creation.
 
These pieces not only seek visual beauty but also aim to convey a message of environmental responsibility: what has been discarded can be reborn as art. Through this technique, the artist proposes a sensitive and reflective look at recycling, transformation, and the possibility of building harmony between human beings and nature.
