ALBERT PINYA
His work is based on an intentional and ironic naivety that manages to dismantle the perverse structures of reality. He has quickly developed his own recognizable style, in which the artist applies the codes of popular culture, comics, illustration and a meditated naive aesthetic that hides a precise treatment of the themes he explores.
His work denies the “l’art pour l’art” concept and understands that, as the form of expression it is, art is eminently communicative and must always be based on an ideology. For all these reasons, rather than speaking of ‘artistic creation’ we should speak of ‘artistic reaction’.
Painting, drawing, intervention, installation, performance, graphic work and sound are the media he uses to develop the discourse of his narratives. One of his main obsessions is focused on the study and observation of the human being and the way he establishes relationships with society and the environment.
