EDUARD BIGAS
Eduard Bigas was born in Palafrugell (Girona), Spain in 1969, and participated in his first solo exhibition at the age of nineteen. Since then, he has painted prolifically and travelled extensively, soaking in the rhythms of the world. He has been to Australia and New York, but is in love with his life in London, where he has been living for three years. The complexity and cosmopolitan mixture of the city appeal to him, and it is here that he has begun to paint with a great vital energy, often working on five or six canvasses at a time in ink and acryllic.
His painting is spontaneous, gestural and automatic, drawing information from his immediate feelings and thoughts and interweaving these various threads into elegant, lyrical and dreamlike compositions which are concerned, above all, with a sense of balance. These strange and contrary figurations are often set against pure, rich tonal backgrounds which lend his work a sense of serenity and cool.
He never attended an art school. He considers there to be two basic routes through life and art- in his own words, “you‘ve either got to have money, or you’ve got to have balls”.
