Biographical Sketch
Born Nov 14 1947 in Mexico City Mexico
Mother, British surrealist Leonora Carrington
Father, Hungarian photographer Emeric Weisz.
Statement
My paintings intent to serve as a door into that interface between reality and imagination.
Everyone has the organ of imagination but not everyone uses it.
In these paintings, key symbols speak to the subconscious, but only those who allow this language will really understand them.
