STATEMENT

I am interested in creating new challenging narratives, which in many occasions escape me and are in the eye of the beholder, thus aiming to create endless interpretations.

After many years of making collages there are some obvious intertwined themes that could be summarized as looking at the human condition through a surrealist and oneiric filter.

BIO

I am a collage maker living in London since 2001, originally from Spain. I have been making collages since late 90s, rather a necessity more than a choice.

I have a BA (Hons) in Graphic Design.

I just started to make my collages public (website, Instagram, exhibitions) since last year.

Last year I participated in three group exhibitions in Warsaw (Poland), London (UK) and Amsterdam (Holland). My work has been published in several publications.

By nature and nurture a hoarder, I use mainly old and new magazines and books, also sometimes found objects. My collages are all analog/hand made; never computer, photocopies or scans as I like the limitation provided by just working with found materials.
