Cristina Moroño B. 1973. Madrid, Spain

Cristina Moroño is an artist in pursuit of constant experimentation. Merging different practices, including photography, etching, engraving, collage and paper making, Cristina oscillates between the figurative and the abstract in her search to capture the passing of time and the ephemeral nature of our lives.

Cristina majored in printmaking, graduating with honours at the Universidad Complutense in Madrid, where she also obtained a Master Degree in Fine Arts. In 2003 she moved to New York and in 2016 she relocated to Hong Kong where she currently lives and works. She has received several prestigious awards, most notably from the San Fernando Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Madrid, a fellowship from the Joan Miro Foundation, the DeArte Foundation’s prize "Hotel Puerta America" and the ESTAMPA Art Fair and “Asociacion de Criticos Madrileño”s, Madrid, Spain: “Best Artist of the Year ESTAMPA 2007”.

Her work is held by public and private collections including the National Library and the City Museum in Madrid, the FRIDE Foundation, the Joan Miró Foundation, the Gorbachev Foundation of North America and the Macy’s Art Collection in New York. Her work has been exhibited extensively throughout Europe and New York, with her first exhibition in Hong Kong with Puerta Roja in 2016.
