Taquen

Young artist, dedicated especially to mural painting for more than 8 years. Born in A Coruña in 1992 but from Madrid of adoption. Graduated in Fine Arts from the Complutense University of Madrid. Much of his work revolves around the natural and organic, in the dialectic between these elements and the landscape, that is where it makes sense.

He began as many to paint graffiti when he was just 13 years old and has not left the large format since then, adding new tools and extending his work through national and international territory to places like Kathmandu, Nepal, where he also participates in a social and educational project through art since 2015.

Although most of his interventions are portraits, he is currently working on a new project where the migratory movement is the axis. Birds or mammals in motion are the protagonists of his works and, in a metaphorical way, he uses them to talk about the trip; of a journey in search of a better future and survival, of a journey without return and of research and knowledge throughout it.
