Bio
Jordi NN (1985) was born in Valencia, Spain. He developed his artistic skills at various universities, such as UCM (Madrid), USAL (Salamanca) and UPV (Valencia). Jordi NN holds a bachelor’s degree from the Polytechnic University of Valencia, where he graduated in Fine Arts in 2011.
He began his travels more than two decades ago with the urge to explore and experiment with the world. In 2010 he participated in his first international exhibition in Amsterdam. In 2012 he became a one-way ticket nomad art wanderer travelling from country to country.

Nowadays, he is known for his monumental-size, ephemeral art installations related to nature where the elements have a principal role. As an artist in the age of Anthropocene, his site-specific land art seeks the balance between humans and his relationship with nature and the world. The works are deeply rooted in the ecosystem that reflects on the human condition of their surrounding and expresses through the identities and local traditions.
