CV
ALBEIRO ROJAS TOMEDES
My early years were spent in the Colombian Amazon. Much of my current inspiration comes from the complete contrast between the natural environment where I grew up and life in the London metropolis. My work focuses on painting and the liminal extension of the medium’s boundaries.
