Jaume Amigo

Barcelona, 1963.

His work is based on deeply rooted principles, complemented by his experiences in other countries, especially during his stays in Japan and Morocco.

He moves between various disciplines—sculpture, engraving, painting—and uses techniques learned in Asia, such as raku, a type of ceramic production that has been widespread in Japan since the 16th century. He also masters the different media and materials at his disposal to convey his messages, especially paper, due to its organic qualities.

His language is almost hieroglyphic, iconographic, inspired by nature or everyday objects.

Amigó has enjoyed an extensive exhibition career in both national and international galleries. His work has been shown in galleries such as Bocken in Tokyo, Petit Bois in Osaka, Àngels in Barcelona, Roger Katwijk in Amsterdam, Cal Talaveró in Lleida, Nationale Bab Rouah in Rabat, etc. He has also participated in international fairs, including ARCO, Art Amsterdam, and Estampa.
