Piramidón Centre d’Art Contemporani presents the second edition of the Jordi Fulla Artistic Residency Award, an initiative aimed at visual artists interested in developing their creative practice within the inspiring context of Barcelona.
The award offers a two-month residency designed to encourage immersion in the city’s vibrant artistic scene. The selected artist has access to a working studio at Piramidón and may take part in various cultural activities, creating connections with the local and international artistic community.
The programme is open to artists of any nationality and career stage, with the requirement of having held at least one solo exhibition in an art gallery or institution within the last three years. Through this unique experience, the award aims to support the participants’ careers and enrich their creative process.
The winner of this second edition is Taylor A. White (San Diego, California, 1978). His artistic practice explores the tension between chaos and control, combining painting, collage, and object assemblage in large-scale, multilayered works. His compositions bring together a wide range of materials — found objects, textiles, spray paint, graphite, and acrylic — and move between figuration and abstraction. The traces of the creative process remain visible: erased layers, overlaps, and accidents are part of the work and shape its energy. Colour, gesture, and materiality create contrast and tension, while White works intuitively and improvisationally, integrating memory, everyday iconography, and formal exploration.
White has taken part in residencies in Madrid, Berlin, and Brooklyn, and has exhibited in galleries and international art fairs in Los Angeles, Berlin, New York, Miami, Tokyo, and Madrid, establishing himself as an artist who combines the painterly and the object-based through an open and experimental approach.
