Bringing breathtaking sculptures and installations to life, he expresses his avant-garde thinking of the world with a unique, creative eye.

He has showcased his art in 16 solo exhibitions and participated in various art fairs and projects across North America, Latin America, the Middle East, Asia, and Europe.
Commissioned work with Capsule Arts
Sculptural Installations.
Atlantis The Royal.
MAREO was commissioned to create a sculptural installation for the Atlantis The Royal.
Designed as 3D art panels on light grey plywood with translucent white plexiglass elements, each piece was designed to play with the ‘reflections’ art narrative of the hotel.
The use of lighting and unexpected proportions played a key role in enhancing their awe-inspiring presence within the space.
