„Ich bin von Natur aus unruhig. Ich habe immer prompt auf das dringende Bedürfnis reagiert, etwas zu schaffen, denn in mir brennen neue Möglichkeiten, die ich ständig zum Ausdruck bringen muss; die Leerstellen der Leinwand mit diesen „Welten“ oder Lebensräumen, die ich erschaffe, zu füllen. Meine Arbeit, überaus introspektiv, urges me to search inside and constantly create relations and affinities in that universe of new stories.”

Li Dominguez Fong was born in Havana, Kuba in 1978, wo er noch lebt und arbeitet. In 1989 Er absolvierte die Grundschule für visuelle Künste in Havanna, and then continued his studies at the San Alejandro Academy of Fine Arts until 1996. In 2010 he obtained an artist’s residence in Germany.

He has had solo shows and has participated in several group exhibitions in Europe, Asia and the American continent. His works are part of various collections in Spain, Mexiko, Malaysia, Oman, Frankreich, Portugal, Kanada, Argentinien, Panama, Deutschland, China, und Kuba.

About his form of creation, Cuban art critic Virginia Alberdi wrote some years ago: “The relation between the individual and the elements surrounding him is not restricted to a mere presentation, but questions that apparent reality located on the edge of fantasy.”
