Abi Castillo - Heart red
Technique: Ceramic 1030°C engobes, enamels and gold.
Artist Biography: Abi Castillo is an illustrator and ceramist from the city of Vigo. Graduated in Fine Arts from the University of Vigo and with ceramic training by EMAO. Ceramics has given her a world of aesthetic and creative possibilities to give shape and volume to her creatures and characters. Her works maintain a romantic ideal of the natural world, fantasy, as if it were her own garden and her characters hide keys of humor and drama, always playing with ambiguity. This ambivalence between mysticism and drama, between the monstrous and the beautiful, is very present throughout his personal project. She has exhibited her work in venues such as Justmad, Hybrid Art Fair, O! Gallery of Porto and Crackids Lisbon and collaborated with the brand Zara with her illustrations in the Women in Art project. She has recently exhibited her work in Los Angeles with Thinkspace Gallery, with whom she is preparing her next solo exhibition.Ceramic 1030°C engobes, enamels and gold. Abi Castillo is a multidisciplinary artist. The characters she creates talk about stories she has lived and about her emotions. In short, they are an alter ego in which she pours all her feelings. She feels the need to give life to objects, always looking for eyes to look at, that's why faces are very important in her work. Mysticism and drama, the monstrous and the beautiful, are always present in his work. This collection reflects the intense and deep love in which she finds herself right now, as she has recently become a mother.
