Interested in human behaviour, his work focuses mainly on social commentary through analogies and satire.
In his digital illustrations and animations, J'erre infuses each stroke with a distinct human touch. From bold pencil and pastel strokes to thick oil brushstrokes, his style evokes a sense of familiarity with the tangible world in intangible artworks. This becomes even more evident through the exploration of humanist themes, prompting viewers to look at their own roles in the world around them.
He has also made several short films in Spanish as a screenwriter, director, producer and actor. In them he also deals with psychological issues and human conflicts.

Why J'erre?
"The origin and background of my nickname are diverse and the result is simple, like my visuals: my winding path through different artistic expressions, and other issues in my life, has led me to feel like an 'errant' soul. I feel this word sums up of my wandering character and is bit similar in Spanish to my last name: Errante - Errecarte. Now, back to the meaning of errant, 'I wander' in French is J'erre. So there you have it. But why in French? Because if you pronounce it correctly, it sounds beautiful, but if you do it wrong, it sounds like you're about to spit or throw up... which seems even more appropriate to me. As you can see, this is a twisted, far-fetched, whimsical, ridiculous, cheap and pretentious argument (as usual in contemporary art) to represent my real full name, which is Javier Errecarte."
