Born in Mexico City in 1985, he studied Visual Arts in Cuernavaca, where he specialized in drawing and graphic arts, and later completed a postgraduate degree in Pedagogy and Arts Education. Since 2010, he has lived in San José del Pacífico, Oaxaca, where he develops work that encompasses printmaking, drawing, tattooing, and public interventions, always with line as the technical and emotional foundation. His artistic practice focuses on spiritual contemplation and connection with nature, integrating flora, earthly symbols, and celestial elements into compositions that invite introspection. The mountains and the community environment in which he lives permeate his work, making each piece an intimate and honest narrative that intertwines life experience and artistic creation.

With his piece “Diagrama Sobre la Restauración”, Carlos Bautista showed us how our world completely shifted during this last year of pandemic.
