About The Artist View Artist

In the American Family Series, recycled cardboard is featured as a means to refashion interiors habited by glamorous figures dressed in recycled materials in snapshots of family “momentums” that depict domestic life while simultaneously giving tribute to fashion editorial. Trash is depicted in an elegant manner. In this my second body of work, I go deeper into American culture, with the American Family as the center for a dialogue focusing on heritage through architecture, culture, and ethnicity; Contemporary families amid contemporary environments. I feel it is important to create full-scale replicas of the scenes used in this body of work as it enables the viewers to become immersed in these transient scenes.

"I started my career in the advertising field, moved on to the motion picture industry and now evolved into making stills. This is an exciting new chapter in my career as an artist, and my goal is to show people that fashion is not only about consuming and wasting; we can bring forth inspired art into the world by recycling. Rather than creating waste, I am converting it into beauty, and I am reminded that we can express ourselves in extraordinary ways by using the most basic elements." - CRISTOBAL VALECILLOS

My work contemplates fundamental things such as our basic need to provide for ourselves; our desire for home, belonging, and connection; and our being a small temporary part of the natural world’s continuum. These thoughts take shape in images and objects that combine simple representations, layered abstractions, and plain-spoken materials
