Her objective is to capture a world of stories and mystery through light and darkness. Her color palettes and lighting scales are inspired by Baroque and Renaissance art, resulting in a pictorial style that flits between dreamlike worlds and surreal settings.
Lucero has exhibited in several Latin American countries as well as in Italy, and has worked with different brands, designers, and agencies in the creation of campaigns, branding, and art direction.
