Hello there! I’m a vibrant artist and architect hailing from the beautiful city of Quito, Ecuador, now soaking up the sunny vibes in Miami for the past couple of years.

My artistic ethos is deeply rooted in the exploration of materials and their transformative potential. By embracing a diverse palette of mediums, including plaster, oil paint, and spray paint, I am able to infuse my creations with a unique sense of texture, depth, and dynamism. Plaster, with its tactile quality, allows me to sculpt and mold my ideas into tangible forms, lending a three-dimensional richness to my work. Oil paint, known for its lush and vivid colors, enables me to add layers of emotion and complexity, creating a narrative within each stroke, and spray paint, reminiscent of the vibrant and rebellious spirit of street art, brings a sense of immediacy and raw energy, pushing the boundaries of traditional artistry. These materials become not just tools but collaborators in my artistic process, guiding me towards innovative expressions that bridge the worlds of classical and contemporary art.

In the delicate dance between these mediums, my work finds its voice, speaking to the transformative power of materials in shaping the very essence of my artistic vision.

Elegance in Every Stroke | The Art of Sebastian de la Paz

- My work as an architect is a true reflection of my personality, an intricate fusion of my passion for the built environment and my profound love for the vibrant and dynamic world of urban art, pop culture, and graffiti. Through my creations, I seek to harmonize the structured precision of architectural design with the raw, expressive energy of street art. In every project, I draw inspiration from the very essence of urban life. The sprawling cityscapes, the rhythmic pulse of the streets, and the kaleidoscope of cultures intermingling on every corner all serve as my canvas. I translate these experiences into my architectural designs, weaving the tapestry of urban vitality into the fabric of my creations.

The vivid colors, bold lines, and unapologetic self-expression found in graffiti and street art influence my approach. These elements infuse my work with a sense of spontaneity, a willingness to break boundaries, and an eagerness to challenge the conventional. My buildings aren’t merely structures; they are living, breathing reflections of the cities they inhabit. Just as a street artist leaves their mark on the cityscape, I aim to leave my mark on the architectural world, infusing it with the soul of the streets. My work as an architect is an ongoing dialogue between the ordered world of blueprints and the freespirited realm of urban art, resulting in creations that are both functional and deeply resonant with the human experience.
