The Fragility of the Promise

About Kedgar Volta

Since living in Florida, Volta draws inspiration from a dual cultural perspective, creating multi-media and photographic works that represent disparate lives and environments, while serving as narrative that reminds us of our common humanity. The work also reflects his understanding of art as a vehicle to bring form-shaping movement to the fragmented reality of our internal landscapes, in order to offer a sense of purpose and meaning through the prism of the self.

Volta is the founder and creative director of the experience design company, Castano Group in Jacksonville, Florida. He has participated in several group and solo exhibitions throughout Florida and was selected for the Crystal Bridges Museum of Art's State of the Art: Discovering American Art Now exhibition (2014-15) which subsequently traveled throughout the country, he also exhibited Project Atrium: Kedgar Volta, The Fragility of the Promise at Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA), Jacksonville, FL from November 15, 2019 to March 1, 2020.
