Who was Salvador Alibau? Considered the creator with the most important and original role in our country. From experimentation with cellulose fiber and paper, Alibau created his own creation technique: he applied layers of cellulose in water so that, although with a controlled process, he had the complicity of the caprices of the swaying of the water. This exploration of media and materials did not respond strictly to an aesthetic or formal concern, but to a poetics of matter and its own dynamics. The two subjects that interested Alibau were nature and mathematics, to the point where he created the concept of mathematics, which unites science and intuition
