Holds a Graduate degree from UPC, a Master from Stanford University and a PhD from URL. He is a Fulbright Alumni.His work is organized in two distinct bodies: Elegies of Manumission and Propositions. The four elegies produced between 2010 and 2011 raise social and political questions through symbolic portraiture. Propositions, initiated in 2011, deal with contemporary political and art issues through photography and video. Esteban’s series Propositions pose uncomfortable questions. In Proposition One, translucent X-ray images magnify mechanical devices that have become outdated, although they continue to function perfectly according to their purpose. In Proposition Three, de Esteban examines the cold, gray inner life of cell phones or tablets and the increasing enmeshment of the body and digital technology. In Heads Will Roll, part four of the series, the artist uses seductive photo collages made of film stills, flower photos, and fragments of text to convey the essence of the parameters that are penetrated by the postmodern patchwork of our lives. The media define everyday life: we are permanently made to feel insecure by the wars and disasters that are always happening in the world; the individual is in danger of drowning in the masses; genuine and fake have become almost indistinguishable; and a vague fear of the East pervades political policy. Reality is largely conveyed as a media experience. Heads will Roll, published by Hatje Cantz, was listed as a photo-book of the year by LensCulture magazine and its NYC exhibition was in the cover of Photograph Magazine in its September–October, 2015 issue and Artslant \"must see exhibitions in North America\".His monographs include Elegies of Manumission, published by Nazraeli Press, February 2012; Propositions by Spicer House Editions, February 2013, Heads will Roll published by Hatje Cantz October 2014 and Propositions by La Fabrica June 2015.
