Biography

Beauty repairs.

It is the central idea in the development of my work as a visual artist and architect.

As a visual artist I work on multidisciplinary projects through painting, sculpture, photography and video.

Sardines (2011) is a reflection on the collective intelligences and the perception of value of the individual against the collective. Cuentos (2011) addresses through photography the complexity of the narrative structures of simple stories. Seascapes (2016-2020) is a reflection on color, light, matter, space and time. Black sun (silence) (2017-2020) explores the latent emotion in one of the most moving experiences of human existence, “the dark night of the soul." Poppies (2017-2020) is a project focused on love and beauty as fundamental challenges of the human being that takes a lifetime to understand. Waldweben (Sigfrido's forest) (2018-2020) represents the moment in which we connect with the sublime from the beauty of nature.

As an architect I have developed my professional career at Richard Rogers Partnership (London) and in my own studio. My work has been awarded and recognized internationally, being selected to represent Spain in the Green Building Challenge (Tokyo 2005) among others. I have been a professor (Antonio de Nebrija University and La Salle University) and researcher (FAME Project 2011, Government of Spain).
