My name is Nelly Ornelas, known as Nelly Chan. I have a degree in graphic design from UNV Lagos de Moreno, a background that complements my deep attachment to the raw expression of pencil and paper.

I have found refuge in drawing and painting, escaping from what hurts me and emotionally drains me. My fascination with dark art has led me to implement it in my works, but in a way that I feel represented, with complex emotions that have accompanied me since childhood, transforming the "beautiful" into discomfort for the viewer.

I create from what cannot be expressed with words, and always thinking about connecting with the viewer, from what hurts me and from the fears that not many are aware of having and that dwell deep in their subconscious.
