Moises Sanabria

Born in Caracas, Venezuela, Moises Sanabria is an artist interested in technology, internet culture and contemporary branding. He is best known for his work around internet culture and emerging technologies, such as the work done under the collective ART404: “5 Million Dollars 1 Terabyte” a sculpture consisting solely of a 1TB Black External Hard Drive containing just under $5,000,000 worth of illegally downloaded files. Moises is concerned with creating concept driven works around the growing language produced by internet and meme culture that create both a sense of familiarity and distance. The works may take the shape of an online stunt, websites, apps, performance, or physical sculptures and hardware installations. Moises’ work has often gone viral, resulting in being re-purposed and re-contextualized by press and numerous internet accounts. Moises received his BFA from New York’s Cooper Union School of the Arts where he received his BFA in 2015. He currently lives and works between Brooklyn and Miami.
