About the Artist
Alvaro Urbano (b. 1983, Madrid) is a Spanish artist celebrated for his immersive installations, sculptures, and performances that often transform exhibition spaces into deeply atmospheric and narrative-rich environments. Based in Berlin, Urbano's practice is characterized by a poetic and often surreal engagement with architecture, memory, and the everyday. He meticulously constructs worlds that blur the lines between reality and fiction, incorporating elements of sound, light, and carefully selected objects to evoke a sense of the uncanny or a distant past. Urbano's art invites viewers to become participants in unfolding stories, prompting contemplation on themes of absence, reconstruction, and the subtle ways our surroundings shape our perceptions and emotions.
