I am from Mallorca, Balearic Islands. I studied Fine Arts and History of Art at the University of Barcelona. My work lately drinks from cities, streets, from the flimsy walls in which the inhabitants of a city leave their vestiges by means of advertisements, posters, graffiti, typography, letters, messages, stains, dirt: which somehow writes the history of these societies. I like to explore the expressive power of words and letters, not only from the syntactic point of view, but also (and above all) by their iconographic and symbolic strength as expressive elements.
