ABOUT BLECO
Bruno Yamil Lecona Esteban is a Mexican visual artist and data science student whose work explores the intersection of emotion, perception, memory, and visual structure. Through watercolors, he creates works that question what can be seen, remembered, or felt. His recent projects include watercolor storytelling, interactive installation proposals, and works involving light, transparency, and hidden layers; all of which connect strongly to the spirit of experimentation, dialogue, and sensitivity to space.Beyond technical development, his artistic goal is to generate emotional and conceptual bridges across cultures and to create works that invite reflection, conversation, and presence; temporary yet emotionally resonant strokes.
