Harto
Works
Harto is a Spanish multidisciplinary artist who uses code, plotters and archival materials to explore how systems of mapping and classification transform the living world.
Born in Spain in 1993, Harto embodies the convergence of different disciplines in his role as artist and designer, weaving elements of the natural world, theatrical representation and digital innovation into his work. His academic background in industrial design and prototyping, from which he graduated in 2016, provided a solid foundation for his artistic career.
The global pandemic in 2020 marked a decisive turning point in Harto’s artistic development. He decided to leave theatre and the tangible world of his previous work behind, and to immerse himself in the digital world: the new and emerging world of NFTs. The transition was quickly successful; within months, Harto’s digital creations were being exhibited at international events.
His work has been exhibited in New York, Miami and Hong Kong. But perhaps the highlight of his career to date is his involvement in launching the first NFTs into space. This collaboration, curated by Dream.me and Jaen and backed by influential space organisations such as SpaceX and NASA, brought together 50 international artists under the auspices of the Rakia mission.
Harto’s work pushes the boundaries of what is possible in art, extending its reach from the streets of Spain to the vastness of space.
