SERGIO MORA

Barcelona, Spain, 1975

GALERÍA SIBONEY

“Mora belongs to a generation of young artists who, beginning the twenty-first century, expanded their pictorial activity beyond the borders of the canvas. They once again occupied spaces that had always needed the audacity of art, of the craft of painter, but which, after the thrust of postmodernity, had suffered a shift away from the focus of aesthetic discussion, perhaps because of the clear tendency of these painters not to exclude of his works an accused narrative style: a path that could be merged with that of the illustration and that, far from bothering them, it encourages and strengthens their convictions.
Childhood, games and toys, television, rock, pop, movies, science fiction, monsters, “art as something magical” – which he always defends – are elements that populate his works until they become Places of transformation, memory, joy and hope in a beyond that is achieved through contemplation”.
Julio Hontana
