Jorge Mañes Rubio

Artist Jorge Mañes Rubio takes common objects and reimagines them into powerful entities, exploring how materials can shape the way we understand myths, identities, and places. His works look at how the things around us carry meaning, and how imagination can turn the ordinary into the extraordinary.

Each artwork is the result of an intuitive process that often involves thousands of tiny beads, sequins, and other radiant materials. These detailed creations come together to form striking compositions, all enriched with symbols and multi-layered stories full of purpose and possibility.

Through sculpture, textile-based works, and installations, Jorge invites the viewer to see the world with fresh eyes. His artworks encourage us to re-enchant our surroundings, finding beauty, mystery, and possibility in the materials and moments that make up everyday life.
