Heriberto Mora
b. 1965
Havana, Cuba
lives and works in Cary, NC, USA
Born in Havana, Cuba, Heriberto Mora graduated from La Academia Nacional de Bellas Artes, San Alejandro, in Havana.
A painter and sculptor, Mora's work brings into focus the tension between the material and spiritual worlds and the human experience of living at once on both planes of existence. Joyous, oft humorous, and absent the dystopian themes so prevalent in the arts today, Mora's work is a kind of beautiful existentialism.
Well respected and collected globally, Mora's works reside in public and private collections across Europe, North and South America, as well as the Caribbean. Heriberto Mora lives and works in North Carolina.
