WORK
His work, which is framed in realism as a form of expression, shows his particular way of approaching reality. every little everyday detail is manifest in all its beauty.
"I really like the theme of the beds and the broken pillows because they are very emotional and the spectators connect very intimately," explains Llorens. the painter maintained that these compositions are "mirrors" in front of which "everyone puts their own stories".

This world that breaks us everywhere, that suffers and crumbles, is nevertheless so beautiful ... that I feel the urgent need to record what I see and feel. Being able to hold back a single moment of magic. Capture silence, atmosphere, air or wind. Emptiness, loneliness and time. Tenderness and beauty ...

Perhaps the paintings are a reminder of the spiritual part that the pragmatism of today's life has made us forget. Sometimes we are surprised by the emotion in front of a landscape. Thoughts flow and link with images, lights and colors, and for a few moments the everyday tel fades to let us intuit one beyond.
