Avelino Sala (Gijón, 1972) work as an artist has led him to question cultural and social reality from a late romantic perspective, with a continuous exploration of social imagery. His work strives to check the power of art as an experimental space capable of creating new worlds. His work has been presented in various international exhibitions. In 2010 was a fellow of the Royal Academy of Spain in Rome and the centro de arte Le Lait of Albi in France.
