The Artist

Lorenzo Masnah is a contemporary fine artist born in Bogotá, Colombia. His work reconstructs memory and cultural narratives by repurposing media, drawing parallels to the Silk Road’s trade of ideas and artifacts.

His acclaimed Nuevos Tiempos book series (2010, 2017) transforms newspapers into visual critiques, with the first volume debuting alongside his solo exhibition in Bogotá (2010). In 2013, his work was featured in Third World Pages at Fuse Gallery, earning recognition from Carlo McCormick in Paper Magazine. Masnah's practice extends globally, including his inclusion in the Imago Mundi Collection with the piece "Five Zero".

His latest and most expansive body of work, The Noosphere Tribe, is a 10,000-piece digital collage collection exploring the intersection of identity, memory, and technology. The project distills decades of artistic practice into a generative series that reimagines personal and collective history through digital iconography, positioning Masnah at the forefront of contemporary digital art.

In a conceptual leap bridging the physical and digital, Masnah also created a landmark mural in Brooklyn, funded by digital bricks on Ethereum, depicting the internet PFP subculture and its evolving role in collective expression.
