Martin Azúa is a Spanish artist and designer born in the Basque Country.
He works between Barcelona and La Isla de Pico Azores. His training in Fine Arts gives his work a speculative and experimental nature. He is a passionate observer of nature which he incorporates into many of his work. He claims the use of craftsmanship to safeguard the natural diversity of material and technological culture, collaborating with craftspeople of different professions.
Parallel to his more personal work he has designed products and spaces for large companies and institutions, such as the medals for the World Swimming Championships in 2003, the Sed exhibition in Zaragoza in 2008, or the series of luminaires Halo and Dots for Vibia.
If we forget the idea that an object is boring, we can suddenly start playing with materials and colours.
