As both an artist and a professional digital designer, Chris Rubin de la Borbolla blurs the line between tradition and commercial forms of expression through technology as a tool to appropriate materials and re-assemble for distribution across diverse media.
Though Chris may express his ideas using a variety of forms, techniques and media, numerous critiques have maintained that the works find a common ground in their conversation of the social, the political, the real and its simulacra (ontology), and other epistemology.
Rubin de la Borbolla lives and works in St. Louis, Missouri.
