Fernando Polls Gimeno (Barcelona, 1989) is an artist working across photography, sound, and video. While his practice spans various media, photography remains at its core. Over the past seven years, he has lived and worked between Spain and Germany.
In 2025, he won first prize at the Torrent Jove20 photography contest in Torrent and received an award for his sound piece at the Music Hackathon contest hosted by Sono·lab at 'Las Naves' cultural center in Valencia. In Leipzig, he was awarded the Denkzeit art scholarship for his experimental audio piece Neue Räume (2020)
His latest work explores nature as a reflection of the human condition, examining life within forests and the interactions we have with them through photography and sound. In July (2024), the Alt-Iba9 Art Gallery
in Barcelona featured an extensive interview with him on this subject, alongside seven photographs from various projects.
These images will be included in the collectors art book''Interviews With Artists'' to be launched during the VIP opening of the ARCOmadrid
Art Fair 2025 and showcased throughout the fair (March 5–9). The book will also appear at ARCOlisboa in Portugal (May 2025) and the
ArtsLibris International Fair of Artist Books and PhotoBooks at MACBA Museum of Contemporary Art in Barcelona (November 2025).
