Her practice operates as a material resistance to systems of consumption and disposability. Working with discarded plastics, packaging, and synthetic remnants, she constructs dense, tactile surfaces that oscillate between the organic and the artificial, transforming what is culturally rejected into structures of tension, excess, and presence.

Through cutting, stitching, and accumulation, Pérez introduces time as a force against immediacy and obsolescence. Drawing from a background in Fine Arts, with a specialization in sculpture and training in art therapy, she develops compositions that embrace contradiction rather than harmony.

Her work does not represent nature; it reveals what has replaced it.
