Born in Barcelona, Spain. Currently living in Montreal, Canada since 2021.
My practice focuses on diferent mediums following visual art. From animation to murals i've found that diferent avenues of expression yield varied results even if the idea being worked on is very similar or the same.
As far as the content of my work, I would separate comissioned work from my personal ventures.
For personal projects I am deeply invested in the exploration of the self and soceity through story. What it means to be "us", to relate to eachother as humans and to coexist in a soceity. The obscurities and beauties that enchant us daily, that are for the most part personal and intimate moments. How can I connect with someone's still mind, with the peace or turmoil one finds right before bed, when all exterior sources are quiet and you are left with nothing else but youreslf and your thoughts. The tensions that engulph us and the bizzarenes of existance, the fact that we are all lost, clueless and doing the best we can to be happy and make sense of things.
I like to work in black and white (ink or charcoal) and have recently began to explore colour and the depths it can add.
For comissioned work, it's not always what you would want it to be, but I try stay as faithful to myself and to the client as I possibly can, and its finding the bridge between us that will generate a final product in which both parties will be happy. My favourite type of projects to work on are with people who are inspired and have creative or socially engaged ventures. Album covers, rave posters and the mural at Shakti Rock Gym have been my favourite to work on, because it is things that as is, are already close to my heart. And to participate in the making of something larger than me, contributing to the identity of an idea is an honour and a joy.
For any concerns, ideas or projects you may with to collaborate on send me an email at pausqk@gmail.com
I believe in insipiring eachother not only creatively, but as humans, to lift eachohther up collectively.
With love,
Pau
