MATRESS STORE // InteriorDesign

 

Some months ago I was commissioned to design a 

matress store in my town, the business was running

since 40 years ago, the owner wanted to change the

shop in a new area and space, bigger and with more

natural light. The shop is 180 square meters divided

in two floors.

the owner of the shop wanted to have a natural, and

warm space, where the costumers could see, try 

and feel the matress in a relax way.

I used natural stained pin wood for the furniture, where

are show the house clothing, using the only wall of 

the shop. Aswell, for the hanging sistem, I design all

of them with matt black iron structures, special for 

the place and for the products.

Hanging between the two shop floors with the stairs

sorrounding, about 7 meters high I made a special piece, 

where are hanging 3 lamps and white natural cotton 

cords where can be hang all sort of products, usually

cushions.

Outside the store label, aswell follow the natural and

simple and warm athmosphere I wanted to created

inside. All the lighting is warm colour, and neutral, 

so all the house bedding and clothing hightlighted from

the shop case.

I'm satisfied with the result, the intentions and resolutions

and in the end the outcome design.

SUPER EYE // Tape

Eye



This is the Eye project, made with adhesive colour
tape: black, red and green. In the middle, the Iris,
I used a metal pan lid that I found abandoned in
the kitchen.
The Eye is in one of my house white walls and is
about 4 meters long and 2 meters high.
I like this days to go back to Tape,,,,I use it and
work with a lot of freedom and improvisation.
I express myself directly and quickly without
worrying too much about errors because with
the adhesive I can edit and change in the same
time I have the feeling and the idea in my head
and my hands.

MASSIAS SHOWROOM

dkdkdkdkd



I got the job to execute the autumm-winter showroom
for a fashion accessories shop. The showroom was set
up in a white walls gallery.
As usual in my works I didn't buy any material for making
the interior instead I used recicled cotton fabric from an
old clothes factory.
One part of the instalation was made with fabric strips of
diferents colours at the walls, and at the end of the room
I created a close round form, kind of haima made with
woollen scarfs, hats, gloves and green fluorescent light.

ATELIER

This is a special place for me, inspiration and memories
come true everytime Im there.
I found a really old and worn-out wood pieces, I fixed
them together and painted on, I used acrilic, wattercolour,
wax and rope.
I set up the painting in one of the working old tables I have
from my grandfather.

PLANETA LOVE // show

Some weeks ago I made an small installation in a

corner inside a bar in barcelona, where I showed

part of my last work.

This summer that its allready gone,,, I produce

some sculptures in my grandfather's atelier,,,

beautiful place. Things as plastic protector for

fruit boxes, drawingpins, small pieces of aluminum,

colour tape, roppes, peaces from computer, screws,

AND'ART tanger // exhibition

And'art, that means visions in Arabic it's a new itinerant

art-music festival in Morocco. In this first edition the

festival has been happening in the city of Tanger. We

were a total of 20 participants counting musicians,

filmmakers, photografers, painters and sculptors. Was so

good to be together with people from differents nationalities,

including of courses moroccans artists. In my group we were

4 people, for some days we moved around the city and

discussed and talked about our impression and feelings.

Next we started working in a project together and

aswell in a individual piece.

The two pictures above are from the market called

"Casabarata", It was amazing for me to discovered,

I love this place, you can find everything, full of energy.

I spoke to some people from there and they told me

more about the place. Three months ago, in the night

some diggers came and pulled down parts of the market,

nobody could tell me why they did it. The first picture

shows how is the situation now. The consequence is that

some people are looking in the ruins trying to find metal

or things which they can sell.

This is how I started recollecting and looking for materials

and objects for my individual piece.

So many children came to see the exhibition,

was really good to see them looking the pieces.

In the schools they don't have any art subject.

For "Casabarata" piece I used found objects,

colour ropes, part of old tree, wire, potato

wrapers and biscuits.

This work its called "Awama" because it's the

name of the area close to theatre Mohamed

Haddad, where we were working.

All the parts of this sculptur are from around

the theater.

PATCHWORLD // exhibition

Wandergallery gave me the oportunity to work

for 2 weeks and a half in EOI (escola oficial de Idiomes),

and it was fantastic. I was going everyday in the morning

and leaving in the night, doing my art in the corridors,

meeting the students, talking to them and beeing inspired

from the way they behave.

All the materials I used for the installation were from and

old textil factory that had to close down. I arrived to the

school one morning with all the stuff, having only some ideas

in my head. That's the reason I really enjoyed doing this

work-in-progress.

One part of the installation it's made it with

cardboard textil samples, they are very old,

and most of the patterneted very funny,

have a look.

One of the bench covered with samples and

finished with tape.

...doing lines with the cardboard samples at the

corridors walls, clossing somehow the toilets and

the classroom doors, some of the students didn't

know what to do.... just first day.

In one wall it's this big fish made it with fabric

samples, they were used for the sweaters sellers,

they could show to the clients the material.

In the last room of the installation I inspired myself

with a kind of Haima, I wanted to give to the students

the oportunity to relax and enjoy the class breaks,

making them to feel good and positive, with a special

energy, created because of the falling threads, the

fabric samples and the fluorescent red-pink light.

My intention after this good-positive feeling it's to

make them thinking about this new place, that is

completly diferent that what they could expect.

The bench and the paper basket aswell covered

with fabric sample, I really love to see people

smilling and surprise.

The floor looks pretty warm and confortable,

ready to lie down.

INSTALATION IN ESPAI NIU

espai niu

This work was made in barcelona in Espai Niu, which

is an art space used for a various events on music and
art.

I did prepared the room for a 8 hours event called

Cue, where diferents artist came to the place to do all
kind of improvisation with music, dancing or others.

I did use materials as red rope cord, tape, yellow net, plastic guns
and dolls.

ACTION ZEITUNG PAINTING // 48 Stunden

I made this instalation as an Action painting, open to everybody
who felt to paint and wanted to express oneself to the others.

It was in the 48 Stunden Neukölln Festival in berlin, they gave me
a 40 sq/m basement very dirty and humid, I didn't have any

money to invest....this is how I dicided to use newspaper, aswell

because in Deutschland some of the newspapers haven a

very beauty and well-made pictures.

I used for this work a lot of newspapers, glue, rubish bags,

eggs boxes, cardboard, plastic colour rope, paint and plaster.

Openning party was fun, people were using

the newspapers walls, painting and writting

the feelings. I was happy to see that!
