Àngel Ferrant trained at the Fine Arts School in Madrid, his city of birth, and is considered to be one of the greatest exponents of Spanish avant-garde sculpture. His first contact with new artistic trends occurred in Paris in 1913. Later, in 1920, he moves to live in Barcelona, where he builds an intense lifelong relationship with the art scene and also develops a great pedagogical work at La Llotja, up until 1934 when he returns to Madrid. Although he began in figurative painting, his work quickly evolved towards a surrealist-influenced sculpture, closely related to the objet trouvé style. It was notable for a great interest in movement and ended up becoming a point of reference for kinetic art.
