Simulacrum is essential in the paintings and installations of Ronald Morán. Morán creates totally static environments, mise en scene void of human characters. The subjects for Morán’s soft and quiet paintings depict household items or accessories of violence sheathed in a white nebulous material. Installations are often domestic or familiar spaces covered with white industrial cotton. 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. For his first solo exhibition at Pan American Art Projects Morán will create an installation with a more political edge addressing our energy and environmental crisis.


Born in Chalchuapa, El Salvador n 1972, Morán studied art at Centro Nacional de Artes San Salvador and Universidad Dr. José Matías Delgado San Salvador. Morán has had twelve solo shows in Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Mexico. He has participated in group shows throughout the United States, Europe and Asia. In 2007, he represented El Salvador at the Venice Biennale.
