Hugo Alonso Spain, b. 1981

Hugo Alonso Ruiz (b. 1981, Soria, Spain) is a Spanish contemporary artist whose practice moves between painting, video, sound, and audiovisual installation. Starting from a pictorial language, he has progressively expanded his work toward cinematic and sonic registers, treating everyday life as a “prosthesis” of fiction and exploring how images construct emotion, memory, and belief. Recurring motifs, landscapes, interiors, houses, and figures appear as familiar scenes that quietly slip into uncertainty through subtle visual fissures, shifting the viewer’s sense of the real. Sound and music are integral to his work, sometimes developed through dedicated sound productions (including under the alias Lynda Blair). His projects have been presented internationally in galleries, institutions, and art fairs
