1986, Barcelona

Marcos Navarro spent his childhood between pencils and markers, always drawing in his sketchbook. Once in his adolescence, he started painting graffiti, a rising movement in his hometown Barcelona.

He studied illustration in the “Pau Gargallo” art school. As soon as he finished his studies started to work for huge fashion brands, illustrating and making patterns, following the latest trends around the world.

Currently he is working as a freelance illustrator for independent and international brands, music labels and advertising agencies.

He spends most of his time developing his personal work, painting walls, and surfing.

Influenced by the urban subcultures from his city, Barcelona, as well as the wild nature of the sea in the Basque Country, where he lives and works.

“When I develop my personal work, I try to delve into global issues from my own insight, my latest paintings reflects the human evolution and our connection with nature. I find interesting the research of juxtaposed concepts.”
