Napoleon Habeica (Mexico City, 1973)
Based mainly in Mexico City, but continuously traveling around the world for his "roadtrip" project.
Although his practice is primarily recognized through photography, Habeica is a visual and multidisciplinary artist with work that also includes video and installation, among other disciplines.
Navigating between fine art and fashion photography for most of his career, his work both commercial and personal has a unique and daring style, which sought to transgress the boundaries of morality and hypocrisy during his early years, but in a way, although direct, always very elegant.
Her work develops a narrative in which she shows us her reality through still and moving images.
Habeica creates a story that is probable and at the same time impossible to verify, like a "still" from a movie. Her own life as a film.
In his photographs, videos and installations, we witness events of which we can only appreciate fragments, with partial views and jumps in time that invite us to participate in the stories that the artist tells us about his self-exile.
