Tomás Mujica

1 September 2024 – 31 January 2025

Born in 1985 in Caracas (Venezuela), he currently lives and works in Asturias. He is a visual artist who generates disruptive realities through his works, questioning common aspects of life by manipulating history, time and space. His career in photography spans more than ten years, while his artistic career has taken shape in more recent times. He has participated in group exhibitions with Latin American artists and has expanded his discourse through Street Art, particularly through the technique of wheatpasting, in more than 10 cities, including San Francisco, Madrid, Prague, Vienna, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and Buenos Aires. His research and experimentation with photography has allowed him to explore both the concept and the image, maintaining a constant focus on observing common aspects from a different perspective. This approach has led him to develop a visual language that invites the viewer to question reality and to see the world from unexpected angles, exploring the interaction between the abstract and the recognizable.

Project in residence

Time Essays

TIME ESSAYS explores and questions our relationship with time and how it defines our lives. Through a series of photographic essays, the viewer is invited to reflect on the way we live and how our perception of time varies according to the activity we perform.

Experimentation with the manipulation of linear time in photography highlights the fear of freedom and the responsibility we have to live fully. The essays developed so far have been created and exhibited entirely digitally, and some of them have been sold as digital assets or non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

Currently, the challenge is the creation of a “phygital” installation where the work interacts with the viewer and his or her relationship with space and time, thus continuing the expression of the concept mentioned above.
