Raul Barquet

My work is an exploration of semiotics and ephemera. With a particular passion for text, language, and communication, I naturally gravitate towards the use of words, letters, symbols and found objects in much of my work. For me, language and art occupy the same space in my mind, so I find it natural to intertwine the two concepts in my practice.
