Jordi Prat Pons

Since 1987, Jordi Prat Pons has held more than 60 solo exhibitions, participated in over 100 group shows, and exhibited at 30 international fairs. He has been working with the collage technique for 33 years. He mainly uses bottle labels, old posters, and flyers, which he recovers from the streets and uses based on their texture and color to create works that appear to be painted with a certain realism, thus not resembling conventional collages.

Over time, he has added objects such as bottle caps, tobacco packs, and cans to these collages that resemble paintings, moving closer to assemblage. He has recently started a new project of large-scale installations resembling Pixel Art murals made from discarded books, which are displayed during the Drap-Art Festival on Las Ramblas. According to him, he uses “culture to make culture.”
