His artistic production, which includes drawings, collages, found objects and assemblies, is a visual investigation around the different ways of thinking about painting. The composition of his works, always thought from a pictorial place, are halfway between the abstract and the figurative, since they are finally the result of his own apprehension of the world. This ambiguity forces the viewer to decipher the work, to use the body, in its transit; to generate a body memory that detonates images. Luis Hampshire studied the Bachelor of Arts at the Universidad del Claustro de Sor Juana (USCJ) in Mexico City. Visual artist, exhibition maker and co-founder of the nonprofit art space Editions Plan B together with Jessica Wozny. As an independent curator he has organized various collective and individual exhibitions in Oaxaca, Mexico and abroad.
