Santiago Cruz (Cali, Colombia, 2000) is a visual artist. Born in Colombia, he moved to Lanzarote at the age of one, where he grew up and developed a sensitivity shaped by interests that differed from those around him. This inclination emerged early on as a strong creative drive, leading him to explore fields such as styling, garment making, visual merchandising, tattooing, and photography during his formative years.

He currently focuses on painting, a practice he has been developing for about a year, finding in it a sense of connection to creation he had not felt since childhood. His work sits between figuration and expressionism, producing drawings and figures with a strong sense of character and a distinct visual language.
