Manuel Garrido Vázquez is a sculptor, creator, and teacher with over three decades of experience in the art world. A graduate in Fine Arts and Design from the León Ortega School of Applied Arts and Artistic Crafts in Huelva (1990–1995), he has dedicated his life to sculpture, combining refined technique with a fertile imagination and a deep connection to the materials he works with: polystyrene, resin, polyester, and wood, among others.
In 2007, he founded Fantasía Plástica, his own company specializing in themed sculptures, which has become a leading name in Huelva and western Andalusia. Since then, he has completed projects involving ephemeral architecture, parades, stage design, museum displays, set design, public sculptures, commercial and institutional sculptures, as well as unique pieces for private collectors.
