Born in France, Vincent Moya's introduction to the arts began at an early age under the tutelage of his father, Jean-Paul Moya, a prominent painter in the French Riviera. His education in the field formally started when he attended L'Ecole d'Art Plastique in Nice, and has since moved on to pursuing a degree in Fine Art at the University College for the Creative Arts in Kent, England and at La Universidad Politecnica de Valencia, in Spain. To date, his work has been exhibited in the UK, France, and Spain. More recently, Moya’s work has also reached Asia, where he successfully held back-to-back exhibitions in Manila to a well-receiving audience.

His work is a hybrid of drawing and print-making. The visible effects are created through the superimposition of several layers of a particular drawing with varying tones and colours, arranged specifically to enhance the movement in the picture and the vibration of the lines. Inspired by the work of Cartier Bresson and Roland Barthes' theories on photography, Moya considers his drawings to be representations of moments rather than objects, landscapes, or people. He seeks to imbue his work with a certain filmic quality, in capturing fleeting moments and arrested relationships. More than simply depicting a moment, he seeks to create a non-static image to give it an increased sense of imminence. This feeling of urgency, created by an optical illusion, makes the picture complex, disturbing, and disorienting.
