Biography
Gonzalo Borondo is a Spanish artist born in 1989 and raised in Segovia. He moved to Madrid at age 14 to study at the Academy of Fine Arts, where he immersed himself in both classical painting techniques and the city's graffiti scene. The son of a psychiatrist and a restorer of religious art, he developed a practice that explores memory, impermanence, and the layers of time embedded in architectural surfaces.
Since 2010, he has worked across six continents, creating murals and installations for institutions including the Urban Nation Museum in Berlin, the MACRO Museum in Rome, and the Musée d'Art Contemporain de Bordeaux (permanent collection). His "Rivers" series, created for Lisbon's MURO festival in 2016, exemplifies his signature: ghostly human silhouettes that dissolve into the wall's surface as if fading into water.
In 2023, he was elected a full member of the Real Academia de Historia y Arte de San Quirce in Segovia, recognizing his contribution to contemporary figurative art.
