Francesc Bergadà is a Spanish visual artist. As an emerging painter, he has already participated in several national and international exhibitions. His original style of representing the works in such a precise and clean way makes him a standout artist with great potential.

Their work centers on three main pillars: the abstract, minimalism, and the geometric. Their paintings represent abstract constructions within a minimalist context where their straight lines stand out, delivering impact while also lending elegance to the space where they might be placed. They tend to use chromatic schemes in grayscale tones, along with basic colors such as black, white, or blue. Regarding materials, most of the paintings have 4 cm thick stretcher frames and canvases or linen fabric as well. They use mixed media, with acrylic paint throughout all of their works.

Their inspiration for the designs comes from and has its origin in the classic game of "Tangram" to build geometric compositions with symmetrical and asymmetrical elements. In addition to influences from the movement of the school "Bauhaus" and also from contemporary Nordic authors such as Carsten Beck. Far from virtuosity, they strive to convey emotions in each of their brushstrokes and in their simple designs.
