Born in Mexico City, 1981. Juan L Velazquez holds a BA in Communication Sciences a AA degree in Photography and an MFA in Experimental & Documentary Arts. Because of his family ties, education and work experience he grew up in the liminality of social contexts, in between urban/rural-communities, capital/border-cities, core/periphery-nations.

For over a decade he worked with the moving image through a multifaceted experience within the film community in Mexico. In a later and complementary phase he specialized in synchronous electric-motor stabilization and multi-axial motion control.

As a visual artist Juan L examines and investigates through lens-based images, and installation practices the mechanism of perception, mediation and representation that exist in the tradition of audio visual documentation by exploring the transient human relationship with the natural world.
