BIOGRAPHY
Mónica Fastag Ponsky (Mexico City, b. 1969) is a Mexican artist based in Cleveland, Ohio, whose mixed-media paintings reflect a formal design sensibility rooted in her background in industrial design, metalsmithing, and jewelry making. Drawing on this foundation, Fastag Ponsky approaches materials intuitively, often including upcycling found and repurposed objects to explore texture, color, and form. She combines techniques including painting, drawing, and embroidery to create layered works that convey her vision of a more vibrant, expressive world. Her practice seeks to infuse everyday life with color, warmth, and emotional resonance.
