Descripción del Artista

Vive y trabaja en Madrid y Mexico DF Licenciado en la ETSAM (2006) y becado en el Illinois Institute of Technology y en el Institute of Design, Chicago. La formación como arquitecto ha creado siempre una gran influencia en la investigación y desarrollo de su práctica. Interesado en todo lo periférico a la arquitectura, los procesos, desarrollos y planteamientos que pueden ser manipulados, sampleados y traducidos a otras escalas, adaptándose a la composición del proyecto, creando nuevos escenarios no contempladas anteriormente. La ficción, la representación y la interpretación de lo doméstico han sido los espacios base para en el desarrollo de su trabajo.

Mainly is an investigation focused on the representation and the narrative of the ‘invisible’ that defines the space. A work not so directly related with the gravity and weight, a value which has been a main unit to measure construction and its media impact on the last decades.
