Work of art right under your feet

José Medina Galeote is an artist who uses painting and other techniques to reflect on the creative process. In his work he first establishes themes
sometimes stimulating, sometimes provoking, in which the roles of artist and spectator are interchangeable.

In his deep reflection on art in general and on painting in particular, José Medina Galeote undertakes an optical experimentation building a particular aesthetic which distinguishes it, both stylistically and in terms of the ideas it carries. Within his work there are clear references to the minimal and conceptual art of the sixties as he raises the question of the very concept of representation reality.

José Medina Galeote creations are now given a new dimension through the medium of flooring.

Galeote & Forbo

Creative collaboration

The collaboration of José Medina Galeote and the design teams of Forbo Flooring Systems gave birth to an unique collection of flooring in which the artists’ creations are given a new dimension through the medium of flooring. By bringing his works of art right under our feet, José Medina Galeote explores new perspectives on various textures, such as textile and vinyl flooring. Thanks to high definition printing techniques, Forbo Flooring Systems can bring the creations of José Medina Galeote to life on any floor.

The choice of the type of floor is yours:
• The warmth and comfort of Flotex flocked textile
• The extreme resistance of Eternal compact heterogeneous vinyl
• The acoustic comfort of Sarlon 15 dB and 19 dB
• The ease and speed of installation of Modul’up 19 dB

"Bring art into the home, onto the floor, and let it interact fully with the furniture and decoration that adorn our homes."
José Medina Galeote

All items of the Flotex Created by collections are also available in an adhesive free flooring solution: Flotex Next. You can order a Flotex Next floor by adding the code NX as a suffix behind the regular colour number.

The dense surface pile make Flotex extremely durable, while its upright polyamide filaments and impermeable PVC backing means it can be cleaned right down to the base. The polyamide pile captures airborne allergens and fine dust, which is easily released through vacuuming, thereby contributing towards better indoor air quality.
