Synopsis

Painter Patrick McGrath Muñiz was born in Puerto Rico where he grew up in the 1980s/90s. The influence of the Catholic religion, very present on the island, is part of his work, which aims to be a critique of capitalism and North American consumerism. From his studio in Houston, Texas, his subversive painting is a cry of alarm in a country indifferent to the growing threat of climate change and the decline of biodiversity. His perfect technique of oil painting on canvas and altarpieces inspired by the Renaissance allows him to give free rein to his imagination.
