about.
The story of XenolithicStART began with a love of art and a need to create it. Xavier Sanchez is the artist behind XenolithicStART. He's been drawing, painting, and creating art in his own twisted way for over 30 years. Shaped by a troubled youth in his home country of Ecuador and a lifelong love affair with horror and the occult, Xavier's perspective is truly a unique one. His eclectic and often dark aesthetic can run the gamut from disturbing to humorous to adorable. The influences of becoming a U.S. Navy sailor and, shortly after, a father further molded the creative filter through which Xavier creates. After creating for many years but never sharing his talent with the world, it would ultimately be up to his wife, Cassandra, to give him the push into professionalism. Since 2008, they've been an inseparable duo constantly creating and pushing boundaries. In 2015, XenolithicStART was born as a concept representing the feeling of always being different even when surrounded by same-ness. It fits the artist, his work, and most of us, too.
