 In 2024 I was commissioned by pianist-composer David Virelles to make six backdrops for 'ORO' the composition he created for Carnegie Hall. It was performed with my prints behind the musicians, marking the six parts of the work . Once the concert passed I showed the images to illustrious Mexican poet Ricardo Yáñez who surprised me a few months later with texts that the prints had inspired. That led me to produce this book which we have called 'Un río de sol'. The book was designed and manufactured by Alternativa Ediciones in Morelia, Michoacan under the artistic direction of Celeste Jaime. The book includes texts by David Virelles and Daniel Téllez)
It is a limited edition of 100 numbered books and includes a signed and numbered two color risograph print. 
$500 mexican pesos (about $29 USD)  plus $150 pesos (about $9 USD) shipping from Mexico City by regular mail.
