As a designer, he works across creative direction, visual identity and motion graphics, developing concept-driven projects that merge music, performance and digital art. His practice explores the intersection between sound, image and narrative — translating ideas into cohesive visual worlds that span album campaigns, live shows and moving image. He has created full-scale creative identities for musicians and cultural institutions such as Razzmatazz, Rojuu, Faxu, UGLY or Hadren, overseeing concept, art direction and production.

He has also collaborated with artist Antoni Muntadas on the project Tasmanian Tiger, presented at Ars Electronica (Linz, 2022), and is currently working with artist Stelarc on a forthcoming exhibition.

Co-creator of AMAGA, a collective focused on performing and scenic arts. Their work has been presented at La Saleta (Lleida, 2020), L’Escorxador (Lleida, 2021) and Sala Beckett (Barcelona, 2022). Winners of the DespertaLab 2023 Grant and resident company at Nau Ivanow, they are currently developing their second large-scale piece in co-production with Festival Grec and Fundació Brossa.
