Of self-taught formation he takes clear influences of authors like Joan Brossa, with whom he will share work mixing the painting and the poetry.
His work covers a discursive plane of subject matter that includes humans' relationship with nature, the society of the spectacle, and the reevaluation of modernist painting. He has been exhibiting his work around the world since 1990 in such institutions as the Arnolfini Gallery in Bristol, England, the Meyers Bloom Gallery in Santa Monica, California and the Galeria Joan Prats in Barcelona, Catalonia.
In 2005 he was awarded the Catalan National Prize of Visual Arts (granted by the Generalitat de Catalunya), in 2006 the Spanish National Award for Plastic Arts,<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://www.elmundo.es/elmundo/2006/11/28/cultura/1164723824.html |title=Premio Nacional de Artes Plásticas para Perejaume; Fotografía para Pérez Mínguez |work=El Mundo |agency=EFE |location=Madrid |language=Spanish |date=2006-11-28 |access-date=2019-06-21}}</ref> and in 2007 the Spanish National Prize of Graphic Arts.
