Felipe Almendros — Expanded artistic biography Felipe Almendros (1976), raised in the Llefià neighborhood in Badalona, is a visual artist, painter, illustrator, comic book author and audiovisual creator. His work is characterized by a strong autobiographical and documentary component, and it unfolds across painting, drawing, graphic novel, animation and cinema. After an initial phase linked to drawing and comics, Almendros begins to develop a personal pictorial body of work centered on his closest surroundings. His paintings depict people, spaces and situations connected to the periphery of Barcelona, nightlife, popular culture and personal memory. Over time, his painting gradually shifts the marginal landscape toward scenes of leisure, interiors, parties and characters from Barcelona’s nocturnal world. His pictorial language is figurative, direct and rooted in realism, though distant from a purely photographic reproduction. Brushwork, artificial lighting, framing and the staging of the scene function as narrative elements. Much of his output arises from lived experiences, his own photographs and people from his environment, forming a kind of visual autobiography. Art critic Andrea García Casal has linked this aspect of his work to the historical tradition of the bambochada, understood as the representation of popular, festive and everyday scenes, transposed here to a contemporary urban context.
