BIOGRAPHY


Born in La Linea De La Concepcion, Cadiz, Spain. Having studied in Spain, Manuel Noguera moved to London in 1994 to further his work and went on to study BETEC Art & Design at the London Institute and BA (Hons) Fine Art at Chelsea School of Art & Design.

My art is an assembling of forms, structures, colours, feelings, experiences, dreams, questions and reflections. Created with fragments of paper(comic books, antique ephemeral, news papers, etc...) and recycled imagery. I am intrigued in the process of deconstructing images and then reintegrating the many pieces on to the canvas. Creating an ongoing visual experiment, where intuition is the driving force for the composition of the piece, the work evolves layer by layer, eventually working together into an unique and original work of art.

For me painting is the window to the mind of an artist in which one tries to create a vision. An idea with emotions, which can be transmitted to the viewer like a poem.
The work is led by instinct; allowing something to happen without thinking about limits.
