Kleon, born on December 27, 1990, showed an early passion for art, participating in drawing and sculpture workshops in Havana, Cuba. After completing high school, he decided to pursue a degree in Architecture, graduating in 2017. During his professional career as an architect, he reconnected with art, participating in private exhibitions and collaborating with the Habana Espacio Creativo project, which explored the intersection of art and psychology. From this experience emerged his Human series, focused on themes of sexuality and equality. Due to social circumstances in Cuba, he emigrated to the United States, where he now resides in Florida. He has exhibited in venues such as The Factory and Estudios 5663, and is currently part of the Green Book residency program at the Warehouse Art District in Saint Petersburg, continuing to develop his figurative surrealist works.
