A Ruiz Villar

A Ruiz Villar is an artist born and based in Barcelona, Spain. Graduated from the Escola Massana Art School in 1996.

His work is created around time as the most powerful sign of fear. Maps explained under the effects of scars. Scars as the representation of what we learned from injuries. His plastic path shows there is nowhere to go, and no rest. The map changes as much as reality does, so, there is no peace. And that’s the way it should be. Ruiz’s work claims we should never find a certainty. There’s no way to walk free from fear.
