HomeSelected Works

 William Mora, originally from Bogotá, Colombia, spent his formative years in Quebec, Canada, where he navigated the intricate blend of two distinct cultures. This unique upbringing serves as the cornerstone of his artistic expression, a fusion of influences stemming from his Colombian roots and Canadian upbringing. As a multidisciplinary artist based in Montréal (Tio’tia:ke), Mora delves primarily into ceramics and graphic arts, reflecting his ongoing exploration of cultural identity. A recent graduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Sculpture and Ceramics from Concordia University, Mora is deeply engaged in unraveling the complexities of visual communication and its historical contexts through his research studio, Memory Land Studio.

Mora’s artistic journey has taken him across borders, participating in residencies in France and Canada, where he immersed himself in diverse artistic communities and expanded his creative horizons. His exhibitions, ranging from Paris to Mexico City, serve as platforms for his thought-provoking creations, such as Attaches Parisiennes pour Poignées de Porte at Villa Belleville and Annihilation at Galerie Laroche/Joncas. Through his participation in international art fairs like Material in Mexico City (2024) and local exhibitions such as Plural in Montréal (2023)  and Paradis et Liberté in Québec City (2022), Mora’s work bridges geographical divides, inviting viewers into a world of visual exploration and cultural dialogue.
