"I carve memories in stone-so childhood's warmth and wonder can endure beyond time."
Spanish, self‑taught sculptor Juan Miguel Quiñones (b. 1979, Cádiz) revives the Florentine “hard stone” technique, inlaying semi‑precious gems into marble to transform everyday objects with humor and reverie. His meticulous hand‑carved sculptures—ranging from ice creams to skateboards—collapse the boundary between memory and material, illusion and reality.
