Juan David Molina Velasco’s artistic practice is nourished by transdisciplinarity and cultural relationships, oscillating between scientific philosophy and the sensibility of matter. Through deconstruction and shifts in meaning, he works on the poetic materialization of systems, aiming to create a subtle dissonance in perception of reality.
Originally from Colombia, Juan David Molina Velasco was uprooted by violence. He came to know his culture of origin through childhood memories and distant stories. He integrated into a new culture and had to learn a new language. He grew up navigating between two worlds, uncertain of how to define himself or where to belong. In the artist’s own words: "Here is elsewhere. I am not from here, but I do not belong to elsewhere."
