Ricardo Tena, a graduate of Barcelona’s Escuela Superior de Diseño y Arte Llotja, creates his visionary works from his studio in the historic modernist textile colony of Can Sedó. Over the years, he has built an international presence, exhibiting his art across Spain, Italy, the UK, and France.

Renowned for his mastery in design and sculpture, Tena embarked on a profound personal journey in 2023, which rekindled his passion for painting after a 30-year hiatus. His return to the canvas has been marked by an unstoppable creative flow, producing works that reflect a deeply personal and introspective exploration of contemporary social imagery.

His debut collection is a powerful visual narrative, questioning the ways we present ourselves in an era dominated by curated personas and societal expectations. With each piece, Tena invites viewers to challenge their own perceptions, engaging them in a dialogue that blurs the boundaries between the self and the image.
