Marco Puig is a London-based artist whose practice explores the relationship between figuration, landscape and abstraction. Working across painting and textile-based works, he creates evocative scenes that occupy a space between memory, desire and imagination, often featuring solitary figures inhabiting pastoral landscapes, ambiguous interiors or dreamlike environments.
Light plays a central role in Puig’s visual language. The presence of the sun, whether visible or implied, acts as a transformative force, dissolving form, flattening space and unifying colour. Through this interplay of illumination and shadow, his compositions oscillate between representation and abstraction, allowing figures, trees and architectural elements to emerge and recede within atmospheric fields of colour.
Alongside his paintings, Puig develops large-scale textile works that combine collage, personal narrative and material experimentation. Drawing on autobiographical memories, travel and lived experience, these pieces reveal a process-led approach in which surfaces are layered, altered and reworked over time. Across all media, his practice reflects an interest in the poetic possibilities of transformation, creating works that are as much about the journey of their making as their final form.
