Its many facets range from sculpture, to musical creation, 3D animation, video art, and installation art, with styles taken from dadaism, comics, punk, collage and even prehistoric paintings. Allen Jones the famous British artist, member of the Royal Academy of Arts, commented on Jesus de Miguel, after attending his exhibition at Think Creative Hub[4] "He is an artist who uses different pictorial expressions in an exceptional way. It is very difficult to make such a large individual exhibition and, at the same time, to be so homogeneous and complete. Bravo!"
