C.V. - Miquel Wert 's Portfolio

Miquel Wert

(Barcelona, Spain, 1982) graduated in Fine Arts from the Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Barcelona in 2005. He is an artist and associate professor in the Department of Arts and Conservation-Restoration at the same university.

In addition to his studio and mural work, Miquel regularly leads workshops, seminars, and talks at cultural institutions, such as B-Murals | Urban Art Center, La Destil·leria | Cultural Space, and the Tarragona School of Art and Design, among others.
