las Ánimas
Seville, Spain, duo formed in 2014
Las Ánimas is one of the grooviest art collectives of the contemporary art scene in Spain. Drawing from strong post-internet and retro-futuristic aesthetics, the award winning duo has birthed artistic work based on minimalist totemic and cryptic shapes - ranging from paintings, to sculptures and functional objects - that reimagine our world as a post-apocalyptic landscape populated by classic 70’s video-game characters.

About The Artists:
LAS ÁNIMAS is made up of Trini Salamanca and Pablo Párraga, a creative duo founded and established in Seville, Spain. Their work has a strong symbolic, mystical, tribal and esoteric component, and moves on the frontiers between art and design.
The vibrant pieces of Las Ánimas have managed in a short time to occupy privileged spaces such as the Goya award-winning film "Quién te cantará", the design of the Lexus Art Car "Gyorin Kozane" in 2019 and which was the official car of ARCO 2021; or an appearance in AD Spain magazine.
Using a language of minimalist, geometric and iterative patterns, they experiment with the forms and textures of materials to create a retro futurist iconography of brutalist and deeply evocative aesthetics. The duo’s visual universe includes references from science fiction, cybernetics, anthropology, brutalism and experimental electronic music.
Their body of work includes limited edition pieces of furniture, sculptures, interventions and unique objects. Sacred objects, created by themselves in their own studio, that challenge functionality and form; a symbolic aesthetic dimension full of emotions that lead to a spiritual atmosphere lost in time. Massive silhouettes of apparent roughness and murky simplicity contrast with finely handcrafted surfaces and textures.
