Felipe Urrutia - XXXL - Runner II

Felipe Urrutia (born 1995) is a Spanish artist aged 30. His artistic practice began at an early age, initially exploring cubist figuration and moving through diverse styles until he consolidated a personal language that combines synthesis, intuition, and emotion. Today it flows into a body of works that oscillate between stripped-down figuration and symbolic abstraction. With a fresh, unpretentious brushstroke, Urrutia builds characters and abstract landscapes that seem to emerge from a territory in-between the real and the emotional. In them, forms dissolve to reveal the overlay of feelings that inhabit everyday life. He believes in portraiture as a tool capable of condensing multiple truths at the same time, capturing the visible and the invisible in a single gesture. He often combines the pictorial image with written language, generating a dialogue that reinforces his expressive intention. This coexistence of text and painting does not seek to illustrate, but to broaden meaning, provoke resonances, and question the relationship between what is said and what is felt. He has exhibited in several countries, including the United States, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain and Italy, building a growing international career. His work is part of numerous private and public collections, and he continues to develop a body of work that is distinguished by its authenticity, its sensitive perspective, and its commitment to exploring the human condition.
