Rubén Lorenzo co-founded Basurama in 2001 at the ETSAM, and he has developed all his professional experience through this collective. He has a gift for human contact and a special touch for poetry, which makes him the ideal agent for participative artistic processes. He has recently focused on educational centres and pedagogical techniques, experimenting with playgrounds and public spaces. He has constantly taken photos of his daily life since he was a teenager, although he rarely shares them online.
