2012 - Present / Los Angeles, USA Artist Studio Izaac Enciso IzaacEnciso.com @izaac_enciso

Izaac Enciso (Mexico City, 1980) is an artist based in Los Angeles, CA and Mexico, whose work utilizes samples of interpersonal subjects among global contexts such as the climate change, the migrant crisis, economy and power, gender and race equality, pop culture among others. Enciso works across disciplines including photography, film, sculpture and music merging different mediums to knead his projects. His research based work, described as abstract and conceptual, feeds from his field work by documenting and investigating in locations, spaces and social groups with iconic identities like architectural megastructures, alternative construction sites and remote and isolated subcultures. Formally, his work intends to expand perception where aesthetic research and design are at the core of his exploratory practice which carries an underlying spiritual subtext.

Studio Izaac Enciso was established in 2012 as a personal space for artistic research and practice and has evolved into a collaborative space with selected individuals, companies and institutions from other disciplines and industries to creatively articulate projects.
