He studied at the Escuela Massana and the Escuela Superior de Bellas Artes de San Jorge. In his beginnings he formed a team with Eduard Arranz Bravo, Rafael Bartolozzi and Gerard Sala, with whom he became known in an exhibition in 1964. In 1969 he separated from the group, and went into conceptual art, in which he carried out some actions such as Llimós en marcha (1972). He returned to painting after commissioning a mural for the March family at their Mallorcan residence in Cala Ratjada. Between 1975 and 1983 he lived in New York, and between 1987 and 1988 in Miami; he currently lives in Barcelona. In 1993 a retrospective exhibition of his work was held in Hospitalet de Llobregat, and the following year he was awarded the National Plastic Arts Prize of the Generalitat de Catalunya. In 1996 he created for the Atlanta Olympic Games the sculpture Marc, one of his most famous works, dedicated to his son who died the previous year, who had that name; the following year a copy of this work was placed in the Olympic Village in Barcelona. His paintings, with bright colors, usually focus on the human figure, represented in an expressionist style.
In 2009 he claimed to have an extraterrestrial contact on a beach in Brazil and to be abducted in a ship for two and a half hours. Since then his pictorial and sculptural production focuses on that experience and on portraits of "reptilian" beings, without obtaining critical recognition.
