Fito Conesa studied Fine Arts at the University of Barcelona, the city where he lives and works. With a multifaceted work that encompasses installation, video and sound exploration, some of his works are conceived as an exhibition of the artist himself and his geographical context of origin; others incorporate different elements of cultural history and the contemporary world; and others dissect the everyday.

Since 2008, he has exhibited in spaces such as the Aparador del Museu Abelló in Mollet del Vallès (2008), CaixaForum in Tarragona (2009), Centro Cultural Español in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic (2014), La Naval in Cartagena (2015) and Espai 13 at the Fundació Joan Miró in Barcelona (2018). His work can be found in collections such as the Fundació Banc Sabadell, the University of Granada, the City Council of Valls and MACBA in Barcelona.

Serafín Álvarez is an artist, researcher and educator. His work entails collecting images, organise them, relate them to one another, ruminate them: imagining other worlds using them as a starting point, building those worlds and contemplating them. These processes are usually motivated by a keen interest on how we relate to the unknown, how we study it and how we represent it.
