PORTFOLIO
Zen-sations/Arboreum™, The Energetic Uni-
verse of Nature, is an undertaking that follows
from projecting the essence, beauty, intelligen-
ce and mathematic precision of Nature onto a
diversity of applications including architecture,
design, interior design, fabrics, merchandising
and decoration.
Transcending both geographic and cultural
boundaries, Zen-sations/Arboreum™ aims to
generate highly positive sensations, to enhan-
ce our perception and evolution as human be-
ings.
We wish that these images prompt us all to
observe our environment in a more interesting
and participative manner.

Zen-sations/Arboreum™ is born and unfolds from the joy and enthusiasm of its creators, who are of a curious and versatile nature. Albert Cuevas is a photographer and a plastic artist, and Sergi Nogués an environmentalist and a world traveller. Zen-sations/Arboreum™ works enjoy cul-tural, artistic and energetic dimensions fo-llowing Nature’s capacity to organize har-monically all of its elements and generate surprising outcomes, which one can feel and may measure radiesthetically.
We encourage you to experiment with and take active part in this lively project, which mirrors Nature’s strength and energy.

as essence
ART
The images that make up these works are the result of the observation
of, and subsequent reflection upon, our environment and its capacity
to organize all of its elements in an almost mathematical order. This
gives place to a plethora of harmonic patterns and imaginative shapes.
It must be noted that these works are endowed with an important
energetic potential --this is their added value.
Since my childhood, Nature has always been part of my environment.
In its company I have learnt to look and watch, to enter its world so
very rich in images. The patterns, colors, shapes and textures of the ve-
getable kingdom present me with manifold possibilities when it comes
to undertaking each of my works –a humble but truthful homage to our
natural environment.
These works of art exhibit close-knit internal relations --they all have
the Trees as the main character within our Biosphere. Moreover, vege-
table patterns prompt us to undergo an original and unique metamor-
phosis.
They conform to images for reflection, reasoning, application and sharing.

& VisionSC
IENC
E Zensations/Arboreum™ has been created with a view to spreading and universalizing the message regarding the necessary (re)connection of hu-man beings with Nature. This message consists in acknowledging our vital necessities and requirements, which often entails going back to –and re-trieving— origins and roots.
The natural energies that emanate from what we are and our surroundings, and the attendant vibrations and frequencies, are increasingly drawing the attention of many who stop to study these energies. By way of observation and perception, applying both an enthralling and original methodology, and a simple and humble approach which is simultaneously very powerful, hand-in-hand with radiesthesia and photography, we enter the fascinating natural world. As we work with the beauty, essence, diversity and symbo-logy that the elements of the natural world exhibit –a world where trees, colours and organic and inorganic textures become main characters-- Ar-borerums are born: unique, magic works of art endowed with captivating beauty and supreme seductive powers. The sources of inspiration are infinite, pervasive and of unparalleled beauty, power and energies. Ranging from the textures of the historical, emble-matic and familiar trees and landscapes of our dear Mediterranean to the vigorous lava that emerges from the center of Hawaii, to the emotiveness and symbolism of such contrasted habitats as the wettest rainforest in the Amazon and the most arid deserts on the planet.
We encourage you all to tune in and actively take part in this (inner) dis-covery journey!
