I graduated in Creation and Design from EHU, with additional studies at the University of Barcelona, and have developed a practice deeply rooted in the visual, working through image, drawing, and the graphic construction of ideas. In many of my projects, I start from sketches, visual experiments, and compositions that help me imagine, shape, and develop concepts in a highly visual way from the very beginning.
I have a solid foundation in composition, color, form, and visual language, strongly shaped by my training in drawing and painting during the first years of my degree. I am especially interested in experimenting with image, repetition, shapes, typography, and the relationship between graphic elements, always looking for proposals with character, coherence, and a strong visual identity.
I also feel a very natural connection to the visual universe of brands like DC, which have been part of my personal references for years. Skate aesthetics, early 2000s graphic codes, and references linked to streetwear influence both the way I dress and many of my own creative projects. I have also developed visual identities and brand universes through personal projects on several
occasions, which has given me a strong understanding of how a brand is built, expressed, and recognized visually.
More recently, I expanded this path through a scholarship in New York, where I worked at an art studio specialized in calligraphy and illuminated manuscripts. That experience strengthened my attention to detail, composition, and the expressive power of line, form, and graphic elements.
