Eudald de Juana Gorriz was born in 1988 to a family of sculptors in a small town close to Girona (Spain), where, surrounded by an artistic and natural environment , he learned the trade and developed a deep interest for art.
At 19 he began his formal studies in Fine Arts and explored many different artistic disciplines at the Barcelona University (UB), generally using the human form as a departing point for his ideas, as he considers it a great tool to express emotions and engage with the viewers.
Upon graduation in 2012, Eudald moved to Florence to focus his training in academic sculpture and drawing at the Florence Academy of Art. Here he was able to pursue his interest in the representation of human figure in the naturalist style based on the tradition of 19th century french and italian academies.
After the studies he became principal instructor in sculpture and drawing in The Florence Academy of Art.
After 3 years of teaching regularly, in 2018 he decided to move back to his home town, Navata next to Figueres (Spain), to set up Geode Art Space, the place of creation for him and other artist, surrounded by nature.
