Tomás García is a visual storyteller and an educator in the art of digital expression. His artistry is a symphony of advanced technology and digital tools that unite to weave rich narratives and profound concepts. For two decades, he has spun his visual tales across various mediums, from animation to art installations, documentaries to educational content on platforms like YouTube.

With a career spanning collaborations with titans like Google, Netflix, and Nike, Tomás has carved a name for himself with the ability to steer creative visions across diverse media. Yet, at the core of his artistic practice is the belief that technology should transcend its consumptive and stimulative roles to become a genuine conduit for expression and introspection. His art is a revolt against the dependency engendered by digital tools, a repudiation of the addiction that mass advertising seeks to instill.

Tomás's passion for his craft stems from a fusion of anger and humor, a duality that acerbically portrays an era marked by excessive consumption and digital relationships. His work is a visceral exploration that poses questions lurking behind the digital flesh we inhabit, employing 3D figurative sculpture and animation to craft a visual mantra that echoes the unanswered queries of our society.

Through his 15-year tenure in advertising, Tomás has ingested a plethora of logos, mascots, and symbols, which he now regurgitates in his art, challenging viewers to see themselves in the gaze of his portraits and to question their relationship with technology and entertainment. His pieces are an invitation to introspection, to identify toxic patterns in addictive entertainment consumption, and to reprogram our collective perception of preconceived ideas.
