Statement
I was born in Barcelona. At a very young age, I started studying graphic design. After several experiences in different companies I opened new stages in the world of music (with flamenco guitar), then in artistic painting and finally in sculpture. Nowadays, I am the founder of a company, Vidalfont Paper, which is dedicated to the craft of folding paper (origami) by presenting decorative elements and gift items to the public. In love with my work I dedicate much of my work to discover new ways of dealing with folding paper.
Artworks
A structure made of paper so, after collapsing, the tubular sheet can withstand a load both vertically and horizontally. The design, made on a 4x4 grid, distributes the curves proportionally, making them work with the application of loads. Apart from all this, what has really been an extraordinary and satisfying job is to discover the elevation of the spiral lines, giving the piece great beauty and movement.
