Inigo Gheyselinck is academically trained in the traditional crafts of drawing, oil painting and figurative sculpting. He now uses a variety of cutting-edge production technologies, such as CNC- milling and parametric design, to continue his exploration of figurative and abstract forms.
Born in 1980 in São Paulo, Brazil, Inigo Gheyselinck grew up in Zurich, Switzerland. He graduated from the Florence Academy of Art (FAA) in Florence where the methods of the Parisian École des Beaux Arts from the 19th and 20th century are taught.
