Emilio Garcia has a long career trajectory in different fields like illustration, design, creativity and art, among others. After 5 years of being involved in the cartoons world as illustrator/storyboard artist, in 1999 he decided to start his own business edisseny.com*. From there he has worked with important international companies like Berlitz Kids, Hitachi, Diesel, Inditex, Metro, Vans or The North Face. Always offering a meticulous artwork with high creative and artistic multimedia content. We can find his published work in Taschen Favourite Websites or Web Design Index Books.
During the 9 years of his career managing edisseny.com*, his work has specialized in animated user interface design and on-line content development.
The digitalization of our society, moved away Emilio during years from the plastic materials from which he started in his origins. Therefore, in 2007 he starts a new stage with the secret Lapo Laboratories, a space of plastic experimentation, where he can give capacity to his artistic restlessness, far away from bits, clicks and scripts.
As a first independent project of this third stage of his career, he presents us a new collectible resin figure: the Jumping Brain.
This simple idea with a clean design has positioned him in the eye of the most select collectors. Completely manufactured by himself at the Secret Lapo Laboratories, Jumping Brain has overcome Emilio’s more optimistic expectations; receiving up to 18,000 visits in a single day and overflowing production previsions with more than 1.000 members registered in the official site jumpingbrain.org.
The Jumping Brain have received a mass worldwide coverage in several languages including spanish, english, french, german, dansk, italian japanese, chinese, rusian and more. In one year, was featured in several media arround the globe, including press and TV.
Present and future:
Now Emilio is being exhibited in many art galleries throughout North America, Europe and Asia. To get updated join our mailing list at our Myspace page.
