MIGUEL OLIVARES. 1967 Barcelona
He is an innovative artist, recognized for his mastery in collage and his skill as a draftsman. His works are characterized by vibrant scenes, full of color, movement and dynamism, where he manages to capture with great precision the gestures and expressions of anonymous characters, giving them a remarkable expressive force.
Collage, a technique that combines different materials and textures to create unique compositions, is a key tool in his work. Through it, Olivares explores new forms of artistic expression and manages to constantly surprise the viewer.
Throughout his career he has developed diverse and ambitious projects. Among them is a public mural of 800 square meters in Bogota, a city where he lived for several years and where he left an important mark through his urban art. This work reflects his commitment to both art and the community.
He has also participated in numerous national and international exhibitions, establishing himself as a relevant figure in contemporary art. His ability to transmit emotion and movement turns each work into a unique visual experience for those who contemplate it.
