Juanli Carrión was born in Yecla, Spain in 1982. His artistic practice arises out of an interest in elements/actions that mankind creates/uses to represent reality or identity, and the social-politic relationships that these elements/actions have with existing operating systems. These concerns emerge out of social and political issues surrounding human behavior, both individually and collectively, and speak to the limits of human existence through questioning strategies of representing reality and reconstructing identity.

His artistic practice is developed through media such as installation, video or sculpture and always has a strong photographic background. A photograph is in many occasions the final result or a starting point, as a way of thinking and a key tool of his creative process. Among most recent projects are Atlas Shrugged, Kei-Seki, On Stage-Monuments of Melancholia. Carrión has a B.A in Fine Arts at The University of Grenade and Saint Dennis Paris VIII and an M.F.A in Visual Arts at Polytechnic University of Valencia.
