My work is about identity and intimacy. I want to communicate my concerns about immigration and the problems of identification experienced within countries.

I am working mainly with video and photography, using the camera as an instrument of drawing.

My latest work is based on images taken in London, Berlin, Prague, Madrid, Barcelona, New York and Buenos Aires; autobiographical images developed through and intense travelling experience. Press Release Carlos Irigoyen was born in Argentina and has been living most of his adult life in Europe.

In 2004 he obtained a degree in Visual Communication Drawing at the University of the Arts of London. He also studied Architecture in Argentina unfinished as a consequence of the decision of moving to Europe in 1979.

Settled in Madrid he worked as a fashion designer until he moved to London in 1999 to studied graphic design, Illustration, photography and drawing.

His work reflects his transit between different cultures and the search of his own identity. He developed a full catalogue of images using a personal and inquisitive language showing places from all over the world.
