About the Item
Strange Tracey are proud to be the exclusive agent for Fran Mora in the United Kingdom.
Born in Huelva in the south of Spain in 1979, Mora studied at the School of Fine Arts in Seville where he specialized in painting.
This current body of work called ‘Domestic Nature’ finds beauty in the every day objects around us which we take for granted. A bowl of fruit is transformed into its simplest form allowing us to create our own narrative. Using traditional methods he layers gesso and oils onto linen, sometimes using paper and textiles to create texture. By using bright, almost neon colours, Mora brings these very traditional methods right back to the 21st Century. There is a translucency of light to Mora’s painting, which at times exudes a calmness and serenity at odds to the vibrant colours of his flower paintings.
The bowl is a recurring theme in Mora’s work, it’s probably the most basic of all domestic objects and yet is a symbol of ‘fullness’ and one of the simplest pleasures in life, that of eating and sharing.
Other bodies of work include Mora’s travels, in Norway and Morocco where again the mountains, markets and city scenes are stripped down to their simplest forms and marked with vibrant colours.
Mora’s painitngs hang in many public and private collections in Spain including La Caixa, and The Museum of Contemporary Art Vasquez Diaz.

Fran Mora
"I am one of those who think that less is more. A painting of intuitive and expressive gesture." - Fran Mora (2017) Born in Huelva in the south of Spain in 1979, Mora studied at the School of Fine Arts in Seville and specialised in painting. Using traditional methods, Mora layers gesso and oils onto linen, sometimes using paper and textiles to create and deepen the texture. By using bright, almost neon colours, he brings these very traditional methods into 21st Century painting. His current body of work called ‘Domestic Nature’ seeks to find beauty in the every day objects which we can often take for granted. A bowl of fruit or flowers are transformed into its simplest form, allowing us to create our own narrative. There is a translucency of light to Mora’s paintings, which at times exudes a calmness and serenity which is at odds to the vibrant colours used. The bowl or vase is a recurring theme in Mora’s work, it’s probably the most basic of all domestic objects, yet it is a symbol of one of the simplest pleasures in life; that of eating and sharing, and one of 'fullness'. Mora has exhibited internationally and his paintings hang in many public and private collections in Ireland, UK, U.S. and Spain, including La Caixa and The Museum of Contemporary Art Vasquez Diaz.

- KreiseBy Walter StroblLocated in Wien, 9Walter Strobl opens a new chapter in his explorations of the neverending tension between stillness and movement. Strobl´s vibrant nudes capture women in movement: they are there and gone again, letting the pictoral space pulsate with both the presence and absence of the outlines of their bodies. He paints women with a keen interest in the lived experience of the body, avoiding clichees in his depictions. The viewer is excluded from this inner sensation, but it is precisely the privacy of the model`s slumber that permits us to revel in our own proprioception. His cityscapes and still lives tell their...Category
