THE ARTIST
Ángel Fernández Sánchez de la Morena
Work is a polyhedron of mirrors that reflect the world and the hearts of those who dare to look at themselves. His pieces contain secrets and beautiful stories for those who want to discover them.
Angel is all about his Art and his Craft. His hands are woven by time and process. Without pause and without haste, he creates each of his pieces listening to his own heartbeat. Big or small, all his work is blood and life.
Former resident of the Brera School of Arts in Milan, he spent a long time in London and Geneva, where he presented his works in different art centers and festivals. He then returned to Madrid to join the cultural network of the city with all the experience he accumulated during all these years of path and quixotic.
