Professor at the Faculty of Fine Arts of Sant Jordi in Barcelona since 2014.

He works on topics that interest him, creating series. People, worries, illusions, feelings, communication and everything that surrounds us. He doesn't leave issues closed, as he likes to resume them, like life.

She makes small sketches of drawings or sculptures, which are sometimes just for herself as a preliminary work to then start the piece. She looks for rhythms, small details, movements, emotions and especially looks, which transport her to the character of the character.

It needs to connect with the sculpture (character) you want to create, so that the viewers who look at it can also connect with it.

Sculpture is the middle point, where weight disappears in space, where matter and all its qualities are transformed into thoughts, emotions, experiences to give way to the air we breathe.

The drawing is the magical moment to capture the gesture, the look, the moment that can be eternal as long as your gaze holds his, while in that gesture you see his before and his after.
