Space Clips is an audiovisual Project that uses the video clip format to achieve the greatest sensorial impact, using its condition of integrated language. These videos are the fruit of the artist's collaboration with musicians who helped him provide imagery for the music of his preference. Part of the project includes object sculptures that show slides of virtual landscapes: 3D object viewers that, like tourist paraphernalia, give an impression of a mentally visited distant reality to the exhibition space.

Space Clips is an audiovisual project that uses the video clip format to achieve the greatest sensorial impact, using its condition of integrated language. These videos are the fruit of the artist’s collaboration with musicians who helped him provide imagery for the music of his preference.
Part of the project includes object sculptures that show slides of virtual landscapes: 3D object viewers that, like tourist paraphernalia, give an impression of a mentally visited distant reality to the exhibition space. Space Clips is based in tools provided by the road movie film genre as a paradigm for speculative creation of fantastic and unlimited worlds.
The project generates spatially coherent creations, but without physical limitations, using 3D infographic technologies. This permits the reflection of epic atmospheres proper to the world of science fiction, a legitimate refuge for the romantic landscape upon which the artist is currently focused.

Javier Longobardo (Gijón, 1969) grew up taking painting for granted, which is not surprising considering both his parents were drawing teachers. He moved around continuously, living in Madrid, Gijón, Jerez and Granada, the city where he finally settled down. After starting Fine Arts in Granada, he continued his studies in Seville, Bilbao and Sheffield (England), finally graduating in the University of the Basque Country. This peripatetic education has added a wealth of experience to his work. Back in Granada, he started working as an artist, admittedly not very prolific though highly eclectic. He has never tried to open up a place for himself in the art market and his incursions into art galleries have been sporadic. He makes a living as a drawing teacher in schools, academies and workshops and, at the current moment, he is working in a little town in Badajoz called Cabeza del Buey. Internet gives him the necessary diffusion to make up for the geographical limitation. Among his one-person exhibitions are Buck Sad. (2008) Sala El Brocense, Cáceres; Zaidín Monumental (2001), Palacio de Los Condes de Gabia. Área de Cultura de la Diputación de Granada; Grandes Ilustraciones y Nuevas Aventuras de Mazinger Z (1996), La Corrala de Santiago, City Council of Granada exhibition hall; Practique sin Salir de Casa (1996), Sala Hydra, Granada, among others.
