Unique work

Orange Fog, The Benefit of the Doubt is an oil on linen that presents a landscape full of detail and atmosphere. The scene is constructed from references to the history of painting, from the trees, which are reminiscent of Emma Webster, to certain elements that evoke Hieronymus Bosch or the treatment of the background through a sfumato close to Leonardo da Vinci. In the center of the composition, several trees are arranged in a circular formation, creating a contained space within which a flame appears. This element introduces tension within the image: it is unclear whether it is natural, symbolic, or ritualistic. The scene does not offer a closed reading. The landscape is built from an orange fog that envelops everything and softens the contours, reinforcing that sense of ambiguity. The painting does not seek to provide answers, but to keep the interpretation open. The title, The Benefit of the Doubt, functions as a key to interpretation: it invites us to accept uncertainty and to inhabit the image without the need to fix a concrete meaning.

After studying Fine Arts and Interior Design at Antonio de Nebrija University, where he graduated in 2018, he continued his education with a Master's in Research in Art and Creation (2024), consolidating a career that combines artistic practice and theoretical reflection. Since the beginning of his career, he has sought experiences that broaden his perspective, participating in international projects such as ¿Cómo enseñar y hacer fotografía? (How to teach and make photography?) in Piura, Peru (2020) and a documentary photography program in rural areas with Erasmus+ in Dilijan, Armenia (2019). These experiences marked a line of work attentive to social issues and modes of representation in diverse contexts. His work has been presented in various solo and group exhibitions in Spain, and has received recognition from institutions and competitions. In 2024, he exhibited his work at Galería My Name’s Lolita (Madrid), and in previous years participated in shows such as the Pozuelo de Alarcón Painting Competition (where he won third prize in 2023), the Moncloa Cultural Center (Madrid, 2022), and the LXXVII Centelles Painting Competition (Barcelona, 2019). In Logroño, he was awarded third prize in the XXXIV Young Art Showcase La Rioja (2018), and in Segovia, he was part of a group exhibition and an artistic residency at AP Gallery (2017). His artistic practice is characterized by an interest in the intersection of image, memory, and territory, exploring through painting and photography ways of inhabiting, narrating, and reinterpreting contemporary experience. With a career that spans from international projects to national competition awards, he continues to develop work that dialogues between aesthetic research and the cultural transformations of our time.
