Unai Arozena, a wood artist with over 25 years of professional experience in photography, has seamlessly transitioned his creative vision from the lens to the rich, tactile world of wood art. Influenced profoundly by the iconic Venezuelan artist Jesús Rafael Soto, celebrated as "one of the greatest artistic innovators of the 20th century," and the renowned Basque sculptor Eduardo Chillida, known for his monumental abstract works, Unai draws inspiration from their groundbreaking contributions to the art world.
Fueled by a passion for crafting narratives through materials, Unai specializes in working with wood, metal, and gold. His wall arts and sculptures, meticulously designed and infused with a blend of organic and metallic elements, have garnered significant acclaim in the American market.
With a decade behind the lens in the vibrant Basque Country (Euskal Herria), I've woven a visual tapestry capturing the essence of its landscapes, animals, and cultural richness. Each photograph is a chapter in a ten-year story of passion and dedication to showcasing the unique beauty of this remarkable region.
