Selected for the 2025 London Art Biennale, Spain. Oil on canvas, 2024. 154x105x5cm.

1301 Surf Ave. is part of a series of realistic cityscape paintings that, through the chaos and order of temporary elements like scaffolding, graffiti, or vegetation, seek a connection between the natural landscape and the urban environment. The work aims to convey the involuntary natural expression of these places — a kind of white noise emerging from the harsher, more disconnected urban spaces.

Artist working across painting, photography, and architectural visualization. This self-taught artist creates works that explore the relationship between urban and natural spaces. His vision, shaped by color blindness and dyslexia, offers a unique reading of light, color, and form. He has been awarded or selected in competitions such as the BBA Artist Prize, ARC Salon Competition, Fondazione Modigliani, Tartget Painting Prize, Figurativas (MEAM).
