About The Artist

I’m an artist and scientist living in Madrid, Spain. My artwork is inspired by natural colors and shapes in which I intent to represent the decline of human beings and the degradation of nature. There is always a double sense, a natural beauty that covers a real “beast” made by savage humans and that always ends with nature’s contamination or ecological degradation. As a scientist, I am specialized in the study of the decay of organic tissues, at macro and microscopical level. That scientific discipline is called Taphonomy and using this conceptual area, I investigate how organism from the past “arrive” preserved to our times. But I have always accompanied the scientific investigation with the artistic exploration. I enjoy using the painting to translocate those feelings of a screaming agonizing nature that are impossible to register in scientifical analysis. With art procedures I try to recreate scenes of dystopic landscapes, always simple as possible, where intense natural raw colors project surrealists’ ecosystems with collage people, humanoid deities, reactive animals or just symbols or signals, all of them, looking for what can be extract from both colliding worlds, art and science.
