"I would like to be a bird able to fly without polluting or an animal and run without shoes made in China."
Jofre Hall, is an artist and humanist born in Barcelona and living in London since 2011 who dislikes globalization, climate change, ostentation, contempt, inequality and many more disqualifying adjectives.
He is an artist who vindicates the facts and intends to represent in the simplest and most graphic way, the synthesis between two elements that by themselves are contrary but if put together add greater meaning.
His works are always visually simple but impressive, using plain colors and playfulness. Often minimalist but granting room for interpretation so that in return the observer formulates diverse opinions and achieves enrichment.
He does not have a specific technique. If the result of his new idea is to be represented in metal, then he will learn to cut and weld. Or it can be wood, plastic, glass, fabric, marble..., the materials will always follow the idea.
Unfortunately he didn't attended an art school to become a painter or sculptor or illustrator or... So sometimes, he is a painter, a sculptor, an illustrator or...
Each idea is a new challenge and every day a new class....
