THE MONIGÒTICS

Steven Forster is a multifaceted and multidisciplinary artist: sculptor, painter, musician, composer, performer and interior designer, responsible for the complete interior design of Bodega Saltó (www.bodegasalto.net), among others.

He is one of the founding members of Drap-Art. The art of recycling has always been a constant in his work, both in fine arts and in music, performance and interior design projects.

He came to Barcelona in 1988 from London and stayed. He has always been a very active participant in the alternative arts scene in Barcelona since the late 80s, in the field of Polipoesia, fine arts, installations and experimental music.

He currently lives and works in Hostalric, La Selva, with projects such as #Van Imagination, #Hostalric D´ART, #The Nose, #Ni Deu Ni Doors.

For Forster, the Monigòtics are part of a pseudoscience of Humanity. They are recurring figures in his art works, symbols of the human being in its purest state. They reduce human features to a minimum, becoming fetishes of the human essence, without sex or other attributes to distract the viewer from the most fundamental aspects of Humanity.
