Born in Barcelona in 1974, Alfredo Romero is a multidisciplinary artist who has dedicated his career to exploring the fine line between the past and the contemporary. His most recent work captures the essence of the facades of Mexican neighborhoods, transforming these deteriorated walls into works of art that preserve the history and cultural identity of past eras. Discover more about his innovative approach, where the modern and the old converge in a unique aesthetic.
Alben's work is characterized by experimentation and the creation of pieces that capture contemporary immediacy, elevating everyday objects, often linked to childhood, to the status of icons. In his sculptures, trivial objects such as candies, toys, and kitchen utensils are encapsulated in resin, evoking a nostalgia that transports the viewer to a timeless universe.
