Àlvar Martínez Mestres
Alvar Martinez
I learned the redounded forms, abstracts and sculptures of a minimalist language in my height in Barcelona.
I trained as a sculptor and previously studied graphic design at the Escuela de Artes Aplicadas y Oficios Artísticos Llotja, the same school where I trained Picasso and Miró. The combination of these disciplines influences my style, which is characterized by minimalist esculturas of austere forms and mostly without esmaltar, because the arcilla natural cocida can be ver y tocar.
Cada pieza que creo es unique et irrepetible; This is an identical copy of a serial product. Invite hours of work and dedication in each escultura hecha a mano, sin moldes, lo que la hace especial. Creo puts it slowly, by hand, Imperfection, texture and calm: for breathable spaces.
