b. 1990, Mexico City
Julián wields art as a tool to explore reality, combining
subjective vision with socialization to create poetic
tensions that go beyond conventional communication.
His research focuses on the intersection of art history,
myths, literary images, and the vernacular variant of
Mexico City.
He conceives painting as a continuous evolution of
ideas throughout life. Each work is a resumption -
an attempt to bring order to chaos. His process is dynamic,
exploring the possibilities of the material on the canvas
and in the viewer’s mind. For Julián, painting is an act
of freedom where color and time are his domain.
Although he dialogues with images, he constantly seeks to
transcend appearance to return to its essence.
Since 2010, he has exhibited in various museums and
galleries, including the Carrillo Gil Museum, MUAC,
Casa del Lago, and the University Museum of El Chopo.
In 2022, he was awarded the FONCA Young Creators
Scholarship and selected to participate in the Alfredo
Zalce and Julio Castillo biennials. He has contributed
to dialogues related to his artistic practice, held at the
Colegio Nacional, MUAC, and SAPS.
