What I am working on now, and the work it grew out of.
In progress
Two projects, both started in 2026. Each one begins from a contradiction I have lived, opens it to other people's experiences, and is documented as it develops. The documentation is part of the work.
The Moment Before the Jump
Paintings made from real experiences of feeling defeated by life, when being oneself collides with the need to belong.
- Form
- Paintings and collected material, towards an immersive installation
- Stage
- Gathering other people's real experiences. First work: Game Over
A Perfect CV
Two CVs on one canvas: the one I show, and one made of everything I leave out myself. The side projects, the unpaid obsessions, the years that look like a gap. Which parts of my life do I decide are illegible, and why do I keep pursuing them anyway?
- Form
- Mixed media on canvas, with public participation
- Stage
- Research. Concept sketch only, the artwork does not exist yet
Abortion of the Soul
Six works on my mother's death, and on a life that was not hers. The first series that started from a concept rather than a gesture, before I called my practice conceptual.
Earlier work
The same theme, identity, approached through other means before the research had a method.
Spiritual Expressionism
Instinctive abstract painting in acrylic, mostly 90 × 90 cm, made as a ritual in the years I was pursuing freedom from society and its rules. Shown in Alfabeto Astratto 2024 (L’Aquila, Florence, Rome) and on silk scarves at Milano Fashion Week and the Festival de Cannes, 2025.

The Thin Line Between Light and Darkness
On the line between what we show of ourselves and what we hide to be accepted. Painted as a refusal to keep hiding.
-
Son of Lilith
The myth of Lilith, as rebellion against social conditioning.
-
The Greatest Enigma of the Modern Era
The individual against social conditioning.
Portraits
Portraits and two solo exhibitions in and around Barcelona: Terrassa, Manresa and smaller towns. Made while I was leaving a conventional life, they asked how well we know ourselves, and how faithful we stay to that self when everything pushes us to conform.

Fragments, 2020 · Installation view of my first solo exhibition, near Barcelona Fragments
A society of predefined paths and constant stimuli, where we lose the ability to listen to ourselves and let others shape us. The portraits asked visitors how well they know themselves, and how true to it they stay when everything pushes them towards the standard model.

How Do I Feel Today? But Really
21 portraits, each an emotional state I lived, painted instinctively in black, white and magenta on pieces of old road maps: a map of my emotional world. Visitors first noticed what each face stirred in them, and only then read the emotion it stood for, with an augmented reality layer on their phones. The same emotion turned out to be universal and personal at once.
-
Colours of Hope (Los colores de la esperanza), 2023 · The book Colours of Hope
The book of How Do I Feel Today? But Really, with its images and augmented reality.
The programmer years
Stencils, then portraits, made alongside a career in software engineering in Milan, London and Spain.
