about

Working across abstract expressionism, pop art and urban art, his canvases are layered excavations of myth, memory, and the human psyche—works he returns to over months or years, adding strata of color, texture and meaning until they attain an autonomous life of their own.

Born in Catalonia, in 1968, Mollà is largely self-taught, developing his visual language through intuitive, experimental practice over three decades. His work operates as a bridge between worlds: the external and internal, the observed and imagined, the personal and universal. This ability to communicate across aesthetic vocabularies—shifting fluidly between gestural abstraction and bold figurative forms, between street art’s immediacy and classical painting’s depth—has established him as a distinctive voice in contemporary art.

Jordi Mollà is a Spanish contemporary artist known for paintings that exist in a state of perpetual becoming.

With nearly one hundred exhibitions across four continents, Mollà’s work resides in private collections from New York and London to Dubai and Tokyo, held by collectors including Johnny Depp, Carolina Herrera Jr., and Prince Albert of Monaco. His 2022 digital collection Mask World—6,000 NFTs that sold in eighteen minutes, ranking 36th globally on OpenSea—demonstrated his engagement with how art evolves in the digital age, though canvas remains his primary terrain.

Before dedicating himself primarily to painting, Mollà spent three decades in international cinema, earning five Goya Award nominations and collaborating with auteur directors Terry Gilliam and Ron Howard. This performing arts foundation—understanding psychological interiority, visual storytelling and the construction of meaning through image—profoundly influences his studio practice, infusing his paintings with cinematic rhythm and narrative depth.

Increasingly, Mollà’s practice extends beyond the studio into broader cultural dialogues. His explorations of artificial intelligence and creativity have been featured at the Academy of Science of the Vatican (2024) and are scheduled for presentation at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, positioning him at the intersection of art, technology, and philosophical inquiry.

Jordi Mollà lives and works between Madrid and Miami.
