nº 5/14 Sculpture

Jordi Comas Montseny (b. 1962, Barcelona) works as a Creative Director in one of the leading advertising agencies in Spain, Tiempo BBDO, where he creates advertising campaigns and multidisciplinary projects both nationally and internationally. He has been part of the jury in several festivals as the Premios Lux de Fotografia, Festival El Sol or the Iberoamerican Festival of Antigua, in Guatemala. He has also been a member of the board of the ADG/FAD (Spanish Association of Graphic Designers and Creative Directors) during 3 years. He has won several Cannes Lions awards and other awards in the main national and international festivals: FIAP, El Sol, Premios Eficacia, New York Festival, Best Pack, Laus. In 2010 he resumed his artistic career in Sculpture. He lives in Barcelona but spends as much time as he can in El Port de la Selva, Girona, where he has his workshop. Jordi manages to catch the expressivity of the objects that reach the shores after days of sea, salt and sun, the remains of faraway objects that the northerly Tramuntana wind brings to the Cape of Creus (North-East of Catalonia, in Spain), with which he dreams and works. With each and every shape, texture and colour a poetic sculpture is born, giving life to these imaginary boats.
