He holds a degree in Fine Arts from the University of the Basque Country. His artistic practice explores the tensions between abstraction, affective memory, and the representation of the body, articulating sculptures, images, and audiovisual devices where modern geometries function simultaneously as structures of order and as mechanisms of sensitive containment. Drawing on personal archives and cultural references linked to dance, film, ornamentation, and certain historical forms of non-normative sensibility, his work explores how certain visual and architectural systems organize, regulate, or interfere with the emergence of the intimate, the vulnerable, and the improper.
