ABOUT

EXHIBITIONS

Born Glasgow 1969, I was brought up between Scotland and Spain and my family home was a gallery, “Na Fraix” in Es Migjorn, Menorca. Before going to study in London (1987 to 1991) I painted cloths, clothes and exhibited. In 1992, back in Menorca, I started to do setups, installations and designs in airports, bars, streets, shops, discotheques, councils etc., always with an artistic creative aspect and in public places, sometimes I did installations without permission and didn’t sign them, keeping them anonymous. In 2017 one of my paintings was censured in an exhibition in Alaior, Menorca, which opened my eyes to the power, importance and possibilities of transmitting a message with art.

Art for me is a constant development with no end, where different interests can blossom. I don’t conform with one line of work or material, I enjoy the challenges that I put in front of myself and those that are offered to me. All my life has been a journey through art, enjoying my passions and restlessness to know and manipulate different materials as I wish. I had the luck to be brought up in an artistic family of different techniques like painting, sculpture, mosaics, music and fashion, experimenting the liberty of a creative world, although always with a solid learning base.
