Miguel Sopena grew up in València, Spain, but is now based in South London. Miguel became an artist coming from a completely different background in Physics, and combined finishing his PhD with a part-time Foundation Diploma in Art and Design at Brighton City College, followed by a 2-year portraiture diploma at the Heatherley School of Fine Art in London. Even though his training was figurative, Miguel's practice is now mostly abstract, with a focus on the materiality of the media he works with, and inspired by sources as diverse as early life memories, states of mind, architecture, landscape, and his love of art history. The small abstracts in Miguel's ongoing Small Worlds series often start out as free improvisations with paint left over from working on larger pieces, with an emphasis on boldness and experimentation. You can see the series to date on Miguel's website, http://www.miguelsopenaarts.com/small-worlds. This work is executed in heavy oil impasto on professional quality deep canvas. The paint has been mixed with impasto medium and marble dust for extra body and texture, and laid down with a palette knife in the manner of an unplanned, very playful improvisation.
