Based in New York since 1986, Santi Moix (Barcelona, 1960) has spent half his life travelling the world. His long stays in Japan, Italy or even Morocco, where he creates his astonishing rubber sculptures, have made him a keen observer of the human condition, observations that Moix translates into his own unique language, creating the disturbing and enigmatic images that have become his signature style. Navigating with remarkable ease between abstraction and figuration, Moix uses traditional techniques such as oil on canvas or pigments and charcoal on paper as well as unusual materials, such as recycled truck tyres or even wicker, as in his most recent work.

With a long record of international exhibitions, Santi Moix has exhibited since the mid 1980s in galleries and museums in four continents. Recipient of the prestigious Guggenheim Fellowship Award in 2002, he has completed such projects as the series of prints commissioned by the Pace Gallery in New York on Don Quixote in Catalonia, or the singular ceramic scultpures created with the ceramist Joan Raventós that were recently exhibited at the Barcelona Ceramics Museum. His admirable capacity to work with the most diverse materials has made memorable each exhibition by Santi Moix, etching it forever in the memory of the viewer.
