ABOUT THE ARTIST - JC TROUBOUL
JC Trouboul born in 1985, Barcelona native-born with French-Argentinian heritage. The Spanish artist, painter, and architect discovered his love for the paint on canvas and what it can do back in 2015 when he was undergoing therapy for a rare autoimmune disease.
Heroes, his first-ever published collection was displayed during the Art Basel Week held in Miami. The collection of portraits tells stories of real humans battling real horrific wars against other nations, their families, and themselves. Faces and stories of the subjects are collected while JC was facing his own battle against a rare autoimmune disease.
After the publication of Heroes, JC was awarded a scholarship to study at the New York Academy of Arts. He took the special opportunity presented to him and was immediately put off when his training inside the academy attempted to bend and cage his creatively unique approach to his art. This decision moved him to London where he further refined his skills through the use of various materials, techniques, and mediums.
The experience proved to be beneficial in allowing him to play around with depth and texture, giving birth to two more successful collections, Stories of Our Times I & II - Fairytales for Adults and Raw Fantasy.
Currently, JC Trouboul is channeling his creative mastery of the craft to bring to life a large-scale collection he will call Revolutions(Stories of Our Times III). Through this collection, JC will ambitiously fuse legendary tales of ancient Greece with modern societal issues like climate change, war, gender discrimination, the space race to Mars, and more.
Through the years, Trouboul’s works have been exhibited in Miami, New York City, London, Venice, Luxembourg, Paris, and Madrid. “Revolutions” is set to be exhibited in the beautiful city of Barcelona in the Spring of 2023.
