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. This painting belongs to a strand of work within Miguel's practice in which Miguel plays with colour, composition, texture, and media application in a very free and improvisational way, aiming to explore and generate ideas that may inspire future directions. You can see more of Miguel's portfolio on his website, www.miguelsopenaarts.com. This painting will be shipped framed, ready to hang and securely packaged. The piece can be easily taken out of the original frame for reframing if desired.

Miguel Sopena is an artist and photographer originally from València, Spain, but now based in Croydon, South London. Miguel felt the pull of art as he prepared to complete his doctorate in theoretical Physics at Sussex University in Southern England. The realisation that he did not want to pursue a career in research threw Miguel into a bit of an existential crisis. By coincidence (or perhaps not), Miguel started drawing and painting, and soon knew he had found his vocation. Miguel combined finishing his PhD with a 2-year part-time (and very hands-on) Art and Design Foundation programme, then completed a 2-year, skills-based portraiture diploma at the Heatherley School of Fine Art in London, where he learnt in depth about traditional oil painting and the human figure. An eclectic and highly experimental artist, Miguel started working in an abstract language soon after graduation. At the moment, Miguel's painting practice is mainly abstract, exploring themes of memory, identity, and the passage of time, with special attention to composition, colour, and the expressive possibilities of the materials he works with. Miguel has established a solid track record of exhibiting his work and participating in international residences (in Finland, Bulgaria and Istanbul). After past experimental solo shows (in London in 2017, Istanbul 2018) and many group exhibitions, his last solo show of recent abstract work (supported by an Arts Council England project grant) ran at the Stone Space in East London in December 2022.
