I’m a visual artist with a background in architecture, based in Valencia. My work questions how humans coexist with the world around them, and I move through that inquiry using analog photography and archival material, though in recent years my practice has expanded into tactile objects, video, and emerging technologies.
I’m drawn to what doesn’t announce itself as subject: layered surfaces, discarded objects, the texture beneath the obvious image. My narratives carry touches of nostalgia, visual poetry, and a quiet irony, moving between the personal and the collective without ever fully separating them.
On my Desing section, you can check my take on book design, from personal projects to exhibition catalogs and art books.
Based between Stockholm and Valencia.
