In addition, in 1998, he took part in the exhibition "Industrial Design in Spain; a century of creation and innovation", which was held at the Reina SofÃÂa Museum and Art Centre. From the 1980s onwards, Tomás Magro, who has always been linked to the world of design, began to devote himself entirely to artistic creation. His knowledge of materials and mastery of matter have given him a skill that he develops in his balanced works of art, in the words of the author himself; "This daily contact with matter, imagination and drawing, has created a world full of ambition, understood as how to make the different proposals that were being generated a reality. I observed the artists' works and I continue to look at them out of the corner of my eye, I don't want to know more about them, I don't want to learn too much, their burden will weigh me down. However, I enjoy them inside me like a collector, some of them live with me".
