SOWING STORMS

Molins, who holds a degree in Fine Arts from the University of Barcelona and has pursued doctoral studies, is a multidisciplinary artist known for his strong connection to nature and his restless spirit. His extensive exhibition career has been recognized with several mentions and awards, including the 2016 accolade from the Association of Art Critics of Aragón as the best Aragonese artist under 35 years old.

His work, which is part of numerous public and private collections, includes the monumental Catharsis, located in the José Antonio Labordeta Park in Zaragoza, noted for its visual and conceptual impact.

In addition to his work in visual arts, Molins has ventured into poetry, publishing two books: La corteza del corazón (Cercle Roig Publishing, 2020) and Con el corazón en la mano (Aliar Edicions, 2023). These books reveal another facet of his artistic sensitivity, exploring themes that resonate with his connection to nature and human experience.

For those interested in learning more about the origins and essence of his work, the video Mi abuelo es un olivo available on YouTube offers an emotional and profound insight into his creative process and his relationship with the natural environment.

His exhibition Sembrando tempestades explores the connection between nature and human experience through wooden sculptures that reflect the emotional and psychological complexity of the human being. The exhibition invites reflection on transformation and regeneration, highlighting the beauty that can emerge from adversity and celebrating resilience and the capacity for renewal, recurring themes in Molins’ work.
