Desayuno Indigesto - Limited Edition of 10 Photograph

I studied Industrial Design Engineering but I have always wanted to be an artist, in fact, I have been painting at Conchita de la Cueva's studio since I was 9 years old. So when I finished my degree I studied a master on Art Direction in Barcelona, then I studied scenography. The photography I create is a mix between all the knowledge I absorbed in my studies, like how to convey an emotion, composition, textures, or set design. When it comes to creativity, it is usually related to art, but I think there is much more in science. The difference is that in science it is applied to solve a specific problem, for example trying to make Mars habitable. Instead of solving something concrete, art causes a change in the mood or thought of those who observe it. Aware of this, to achieve this change in the viewer, I try to apply creativity in the same way as a scientist would: valuing previous knowledge (the Martian atmosphere lacks certain essential gases for life, the temperature is extreme, etc...) and mixing it with other less related knowledge (comets can transport frozen gases), what if we send small asteroids loaded with the necessary gases to create a habitable Martian atmosphere? In my case, these previous knowledge are references, sometimes these references are artistic, sometimes journalistic, and others simply traditional, then I mix everything with new, more disparate ideas to create something unique enough to make an impact. This mix is due to my extense background (Industrial design Ingeniering, a master's degree in art direction, scenography, coolhunting, graphic design, oil painting with Conchita de la Cueva...) and my variety of interests. All what I learned makes me think about intertwining things that seem unrelated, relocate a cactus as food or an octopus as a perfume. Take away its function and give it another one; relocate it. I know they are going to evoke something, for example anguish, laughter or total indifference, but it is certainly a fantasy. Now I am director of Final Degree Projects about image composition and edition at the University of Zaragoza, I teach photography workshops and I give lectures about my photographic experience at University.
