Artemio Morales Hintze is sculptor.

Born in Torreon, Coahuila, Mexico in December 10th in 1968.

The woodcarving is the center of his sculptorical expression, not only as the material used for the making of his work, hence in other materials the woodcarving concept is present. For instance as in ceramic materials, polyurethane foam or fiberglass sculptures. A fundamental process in his sculptorical conception is working with both carving and modeling ways of construction in sculptures.

He has worked as a teacher in the different sculpting disciplines since 1998. His main objective in teaching sculpture is to let the group discover his own abilities, as well as to help the group by leaving full liberty in the conceptual developing of a piece or idea, basically giving support in developing technical skills as the woodcarving concept.

He has obtained the university degree of Sculptor by the “Escuela Nacional de Pintura, Escultura y Grabado, La Esmeralda” given by the Mexican Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes in 1998. With the thesis “La Forma Sonora” (“The sounding form”). In this Thesis he obtains elements of musical composition from sculptorical pieces, making a single art expression. The working technique used for his thesis was developed in woodcarving.

He obtained Honorific mention in sculpture by the 3rd Monterrey biennale in 1996 for the woodcarving sculpture. Tong (1995, 162x99x85 cm.)
