Lives and works between New York and Mexico City.

‍

In his process of work Gracia involves different creative agents, every participation and collaboration is essential not only in the material fabrication of his artworks but also in conceptual decisions that give each project a unique specificity.

Gracia tends to search for the tensions that art can create when working with dichotomies and contradictions belonging to different fields of knowledge, here lies the opportunity of contemplating life in a different light.
