Ismael Iglesias. 1974. Durango (Bizkaia). Lives and Works in Bilbao (Basque Country).
Iglesias participated in the Espacio Abisal project (Bilbao) and resided in the Delfina Foundation in London. and CCA Andratx (Mallorca).
He is a multidisciplinary artist who has known how to build a plural work with his own style. His proposals, halfway between painting and installation have been shown in several group and solo exhibitions in Bilbao, Barcelona, Madrid or London.
His artwork, highly effective on a visual level, derives from the systematic search within the newest technology. The intention is not so much to capture images in order to canvas them,but to comprehend and accept their articulation speed. This paradigmatic search for the essentials and for the memento in its various stages, allows the artist to blend the achievements of traditional pictorial avant-gardism with the computer screens opaque luminescence by means of systematic fragmentation.
