Simulacrum is essential in the paintings and installations of Ronald Morán. Morán creates totally static environments, mise en scene void of human characters. Installations are often domestic or familiar spaces covered with white industrial cotton. The subjects for Morán’s soft and quiet paintings also depict domestic objects or objects of violence sheathed in this same white nebulous material. Morán’s goal is to neutralize his subject and represent the impact of contemporary society’s lack of sensitivity to violence and the definitions of our domestic roles.

Born in Chalchuapa, El Salvador in 1972, Morán studied art at Centro Nacional de Artes San Salvador and Universidad Dr. José Matías Delgado San Salvador. Morán has participated in twelve solo shows in Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Mexico. He has participated ingroup shows throughout the United States, Europe and Asia. In 2007, Morán represented El Salvador at the Venice Biennale. This will be his first solo show with PanAmerican ArtProjects. About PanAmerican ArtProjects
