Marcel Ruiz-Mejías

I was born in Barcelona in 1980, and was already interested in arts as a child, spending my first 20 years of life quick-sketching at my school notebooks and classtable up to University. In the meantime I explored some formats. As a special training in arts, I received a 1-month illustration summer course at the age of 15, and learnt the rest on my own. I did not produce anything in 20 years, with exception of a couple of wall drawings for my kids. It’s uppon the COVID-19 confinement, from March 2020 in Barcelona, that I decided to start my production, just because I felt I had something to ‘say’. My work is featured by intuition, and a medium to create a balance from unconscious and outer reality.
