Monty J. is a multimedia sculptor based in Brooklyn, NY. Their work explores the interplay of diverse materials to create an expressive visual language that pushes the boundaries of form and medium. Through a deep engagement with materiality, Monty seeks to mirror the essence of each substance while transforming it into something new and alive.

A defining characteristic of Monty’s sculptures is their sense of movement - each piece appears to exist in a state of suspended motion, imbued with gravity, tension, and presence. Despite their inanimate nature, the works seem to float, deft weight, and challenge physical imitations. Through the dynamic balance, Monty conveys the boundless possibilities of art - that it can transcend its perceived constraints and enter a realm of pure expression.
