About migowe:

Migo We, an Argentine digital artist, has been integrally dedicated to photography since 1989, collaborating with several graphic and audio-visual mediums and making independent photography productions.

His images have been on display in galleries of Argentina and Spain. Several of them were acquired by private collectors.

From 1997 to 2002, he started to integrate his productions into the web.

Between the years 2002 and 2003 he dedicated himself to Photographic Practice and Contemporary Photography workshop instruction. These workshops were also taken by people from Colombia, Cuba, Peru, Costa Rica, Mexico, Ecuador, El Salvador, Chile, the United States, and Switzerland via the internet.

In 2002, he left photography for good due to personal issues, boredom, and tiredness and he promised never to take a camera again.

He took refuge in literature and music and did different jobs –among them graphic design- for a living.

In 2006, Haggard’s album “Epur Si Muove” and Therion’s “Secret of the Runes” awaken his desire to create images from a different concept. From that moment music, literature, and image formed an inseparable trilogy for him.

Since 2007, he has adopted Migo We as his artistic name as a way of getting rid of his past as a photographer, and has started to paint and work only with a digital format; using digital archives and digital painting and modelling, and working in concepts based on a metaphysical and occultist themes. Several of his works reflects a message of universal consciousness and the relationship between men and his natural environment in the seek of answers…
