About the artist
Eloy Milán came into the world in Havana, Cuba, on November 23, 1981, with an innate passion for the arts but without formal training. After completing high school, he pursued a career as a workshop mechanic, although he never practiced it. Instead, he spent a decade working in a canning factory while feeling a strong urge to express himself artistically.
Upon leaving his job with the state company, Eloy embraced self-taught methods to explore his artistic calling. He exhibited his work at various venues in Havana, such as The Provincial Center of Plastic Arts and Design and the Art Gallery of Boyeros. Through a friend in the art world, Norbert Feger, he even participated in a group exhibition in Offenburg, Germany.
When his wife relocated to Abuja over two years ago, Eloy established his painting & ceramic art studio there and connected with the local artistic traditions of 'Buhari' pottery craft. While Eloy’s art is disconnected from his surroundings, breathing life into mythological stories and fantastic characters, we can’t imagine the midst of Abuja's vibrant and exotic settings without leaving an imprint on Eloy's creations.
