墨西哥艺术家
ERIK ORTEGA DIAZ
Born and raised in Mexico City, Architect by profession and artist by passion, I believe in art as a lifestyle, the possibility to create is the reason that made me become a painter, an architect and a musician, by all means an artist. Art is detail in the maximum expression of the human capability, is unmeasurable and infinite as we allow our mind to create it.
Erik Ortega Diaz出生于墨西哥，是一名职业建筑师和富有激情的艺术家，他相信艺术是一种生活方式，活跃的创造性思维是他成为画家、建筑师和音乐家的主要原因。Erik认为，艺术是人类表达创造能力的重要途径，当我们主动将想象的世界转变为现实的时候，艺术就是超越人们想象的、不可测量的。
