in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico in 1975, she first started by taking
artistic drawing classes from 1991 to 1992. From 1992 to 1993, after a
student exchange to Bowman, North Dakota, in USA, she studied small scale
sculpture. Then, from 1993 to 1998, she graduated in the art program, with a
speciality in sculpture, at the University of Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico.
In
1996, she participated as an assistant at the symposium of monumental
concrete sculpture, held in "Los colomos" park, in Guadalajara. During
winter 1997, as a member of a student team from Guadalajara University, she
participated to the Snow Symposium of Drummondville. In 1998, she repeated
the experience again but working in stainless steel, in Tultepec, State of
Mexico, Mexico.
Her work has been
presented in several collective exhibitions, as well as in a solo exhibition
for her professionnal exam. After her wedding in 1999, she moved to
Drummondville, Québec. In May 2000, her participation in the ESSARTS
symposium, in St-Pie-de-Guire, Québec, led to the exhibition of her piece at
the "Gardens of lights" exterior gallery in L'Avenir, Québec the following
summer.
She
repeated that expereince during each summer until 2005.
