Discover the contemporary work of Socllum Barcelona

My artistic training has always been completely self-taught.

My professional life, in general, has taken place in the workshop manufacturing sector, although my passion has always been creativity.

When I lost my job at 55, I reinvented myself. and I started You will create decorative objects and furniture from recycled, recovered and restored wood.

I took a course in assisted drawing by computer under Autocad to design my projects.

I joined different Coworkings with wood workshop machines to start building my projects in a space. In these coworkings I took courses in handling machines, milling machines and laser cutting.

I participated in a course organized by the Barcelona City Council. carried out by Barcelona Activa called Fet a Mágrave; (Handmade) where they taught me how to to realize my project, both through social networks and economically.

From there, I have already created my current project Socllum Barcelona.

This project is based on the creation of unique lamps in the world, from recovered objects. Old objects acquired from antique dealers, objects currently out of use, by merging them I give them a new life and a new function (UPCYCLING).

I have participated in different fairs and competitions and all my creations have been very well received

I also participate in exhibitions, in facilities such as libraries and civic centers in Barcelona

This is the third year that I have participated, exhibiting my creations, in the competition organized by the Luxemburg Art Prize, in which the first year I received the prize. a diploma with special mention.

I have always loved to create.

I work with my hands and my creativity, I do not have a workshop. All my creations are unique and personalized with your own name and date of creation. I do not make two identical pieces because the materials I work with do not allow it.

The basis of my project is to try not to throw away objects that are out of use, damaged or already old or old. I think that all these objects have more projection with a new function, more practical like a lamp.

They are not simple lamps. It is not just light. It's art, it's passion, it's design. It illuminates your space in a positive and lasting way with a unique piece with many stories in its essence.
