The Story
Beto Valencia makes digital collages from vintage scientific illustration — birds, bones, botanical plates — and arranges them into ecosystems where nothing quite follows the original logic. The pandemic years turned a personal practice into something with gallery presence, museum listings, and a steady print shop. Every piece feels like a cabinet of curiosities tipped sideways.
Beto Val (known artistically as Elbe Toval) is an Ecuadorian visual artist whose surreal digital collages reimagine vintage illustrations into extraordinary works of art. Blending historical imagery with fantastical elements, his creations transport viewers into a world of whimsical characters, intricate machines, and dreamlike landscapes. Guided by a fascination with the absurd and the imaginative, Beto transforms forgotten visuals into strikingly original pieces that blur the boundaries between nostalgia and modernity. His work invites audiences to explore the fantastical through a lens of creativity and reinvention, making him a celebrated figure in the world of contemporary digital art.
