Background:
"I try to create things that make people happy," says Juan Díaz-Faes. With an unpretentious look at artistic creation and a fun visual language, this artist manages to bring lovable characters to life thanks to boisterous geometric shapes, lines, and patterns.
Born in Oviedo, in northern Spain, Juan Díaz-Faes grew up drawing before studying Fine Arts at the University of Salamanca and has developed his career in graphic design, illustration, comics and muralism.
He regularly collaborates with leading Spanish publications such as the newspaper El País and the magazines GQ, Ling or Yorokobu, as well as has worked for brands such as Ford, San Miguel and Vodafone. He has published different graphic novels and was nominated as 'Best Artist of the Year' at the Barcelona Comic Fair in 2013.
His work is defined by the use of patterns, compact and bustling combinations of lines and color whose shapes evoke characters that, perhaps, observe us from afar. With the support of the SOLO Collection , Díaz-Faes explores its characteristic patterns in new formats and techniques such as sculpture, jewelry design or artificial intelligence.
Since 2017, cities such as Paris, Miami, Austin, Guangzhou or the Spanish town of Reinosa have had large-scale murals signed by this artist. Díaz-Faes has exhibited alone at the Point Ephemere center in Paris and at the Conde Duque Cultural Center in Madrid. His work is part of the Still Human exhibition, at the SOLO Space.
