ALBERT PINYA
Albert Pinya (Palma de Mallorca, 1985)
His work is above all characterised by a constant review and a continuous questioning of moral and human behaviour. Combining tragic, absurd, grotesque, decadent, ridiculous and irreverent elements which, linked to an ironic and, at times comical, at times a little naive or gruesome vision, take us a step closer to the here and now.
