With his “hyper-contemporary” style, Criatura blurs the lines between art, fashion and pop culture. Spanish for creature, the name tells you all you need to know… echoed by the iconography which populates his works – creatures, all with an element of mystery. Most recognisable, and for which he continues to gain notoriety, TENTA, an artistic experiment aimed at re-writing the ‘rules’ that govern the art world.

The London based artist’s debut at Art Fusion Wynwood, “INTRODUCTION TO TENTA”, comprises canvas works and his trademark sneakers, and couldn’t be more Miami. Rich with regional influence, from color to culture, this exhibition nods its head to The Heat, the recent introduction of Miami to the Formula 1 calendar and the bright, in your face attitude Miami wears on it’s sleeve. All connected by one key theme, TENTA.
