About the Artist
Æ is a Barcelona-based artist and designer with academic training in Digital Design & Multimedia Technologies (2004) and East Asian Studies. His work merges minimalist composition, high-contrast imagery, and influences drawn from Japanese visual culture, conceptual art, and graphic subcultures.
His artworks are held in private collections in over 30 countries, including The Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. In 2024, his work entered the Oriental Art Collection of the Zaragoza Museum, one of Spain’s most significant public archives dedicated to Eastern art.
Æ’s practice is characterized by a restrained palette and a focus on atmosphere, silence, and iconic imagery—inviting viewers to engage with familiar subjects through a contemplative, timeless lens.
Critical reception
Art critic Thierry Fournier (Artnoises) describes Æ’s work as:
“A transgression of borders, merging the DNA of civilization’s past and future—an aesthetic of emotional teleportation into a timeless visual space.”
