Felipe Urrutia - Urban II

Felipe Urrutia (1995) is a Spanish artist aged 30. His artistic practice began at an early age, initially exploring cubist figuration and moving through various styles until he consolidated a language of his own that combines synthesis, intuition, and emotion. Today, his body of works oscillates between stripped figuration and symbolic abstraction.

With a fresh and carefree brushstroke, Urrutia builds characters and abstract landscapes that seem to emerge from an intermediate territory between the real and the emotional. In them, forms dissolve to reveal the overlap of feelings that inhabit everyday life. He believes in portraiture as a tool capable of condensing multiple truths at the same time, of capturing the visible and the invisible in a single gesture.

He often combines the pictorial image with written words, generating a dialogue that reinforces his expressive intention. This coexistence of text and painting does not seek to illustrate, but to expand meaning, provoke resonances, and question the relationship between what is said and what is felt.

He has exhibited in several countries, among them the United States, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, and Italy, consolidating a growing international trajectory.

His work forms part of numerous private and public collections, and he continues developing a practice that is distinguished by its authenticity, its sensitive outlook, and its commitment to exploring the human condition.
