About the artist:
Rodriguez Reyes was born in Curillo, Colombia in 1996 and became an internally displaced person at a young age, due to Civil War in his home country. He spent his early childhood with his family in Bogotá D.C. and moved to Ecuador at the age of nine where he officially became a refugee with his father and two brothers. At the age of sixteen he moved to New Zealand and entered the education system, where he turned to art as a creative and emotional outlet as the significant language barrier inhibited him from immediately building social connections with his fellow peers.
