Sergio Moscona
Born in 1979 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Sergio Moscona works and lives in Quito, Ecuador. “My work feeds on the social facts, it is a constant game with what is happening, an interaction that moves back and forth to the same things with the sole intention of trying to get closer to a point where I can, in the closest measure possible, understand them” writes Sergio Moscona. “At 34 years, this Argentinean prodigy seems to be one of the rising figures of global contemporary art. Feeding on the genius of Picasso, he builds an epic of humanity, brutal and refined, tragicomic and monumental”, Marion Kling in Artension #120. How does Sergio Moscona question our reality of being humans? In this adversity, one against the other, confronted by the adventures of existence, how do we react? Which questions do we ask? How does the artist embody his resentment faced with our imperfect condition of being humans? By illustrating his horrors and his obstacles as well as his philosophical insights, Sergio Moscona takes a generous and questioning look at the existence. Sergio Moscona depicts with perplexity and without concession of the society in which he lives. His work is situated in the crossroads of the reality of the social and artistic chaos. He stages the works of the deaf forces, those generators of anxiety who destroy all social relationships. Indeed, the violence, the excess and the social misery compromise the survival of the subjectivity of the individuals. Sergio Moscona denounces this global reality and hopes to see a day when Paquito is free of his nightmares and can reclaim his right to dream. CAREER 1989
