Born in Cuba in 1967, Carlos Garaicoa's work speaks of the past and present through memory, decay, desire, architecture, utopia and the relationship between reality and fiction. The city as a representation of individual and collective memory has been a recurring subject in his work.
Garaicoa's collaborations with Factum Arte have favored the development of projects technically linked to his conceptual interests, such as blind-embossing on paper (as seen in the subversive relief messages of Frases) or his architectural additions to images of buildings and landscapes (Para transformar la palabra política en hechos, finalmente II).
A new collaboration on polistyerene sculptures is underway.
