Xavier Pons

Xavier Pons holds a higher degree as a mural painting technician from the Llotja School of Art and Design. He studied Fine Arts at the UPV and in Leioa, Bilbao. He has attended various specialized courses in modeling techniques, advanced illustration, layout, molds, and new materials applied to sculpture.

He is a multidisciplinary artist who, for years, has combined painting with the creation of sculptures made from various recycled objects. Once melted, chopped, and stripped of their original function and meaning, these objects become the raw material with which he carries out his work, often related to futuristic and science fiction worlds.

In this edition of Drap-Art, he presents a new line of work created with spider webs, which he “catches” and transfers (or transports) onto paper as he finds them, allowing the spider to showcase its art and nature to surprise us, while he overcomes his phobia of arachnids.
