BIO

Born in Barcelona, (Spain) I live and work in Brisbane. The diversity of two cultures has enriched my art work. I describe myself as a visual story teller, and in all my works emerge from the seminal characteristic of humour. As an artist, I have been able to expand and develop my art for more than thirty years. This progression is evident in my present work, where I explore my creative side with a playful story in mind. Satire, absurdity and a certain dosis of gash, are important elements which I explore with enthusiasm. Although, I am still enjoying questioning the status quo of the Catholic Church, (as I grew up under a dictatorial ruling, blessed by the Church), my own perspective now expands to laugh at the irony of life, in which I am including myself.
