BAZKEZ is the artistic practice of Guillermo Vázquez (b. 1983, Madrid). His work began in graphic art, developed for years under the name @damepistachos. Over time, it has gradually moved towards abstraction, expanding into new processes, techniques, materials and formats.

Working from his studio in Pontevedra, Galicia, his pieces grow through layers, time and constant decisions on the surface. Contrast, limited palettes, accidents and erosion define his work, keeping elements from his graphic background while moving away from the need to illustrate in order to be understood.

His graphic work has been shown nationally and internationally, with exhibitions in Spain, Mexico and the United States.

Alongside the finished works, ATLAS brings together processes, tests and fragments around his work. On @bazkez_, this extends into everyday studio life, visual experiments and other formats.





ABSTRACTION IS A NECESSITY NOT A CHOICE
