Berlin tropical

Oscar Castillo’s works are the result of a search for a fixed point where the inner and outer worlds meet and enter into creative conflict. Here, the outer world stands for expansion and a centripetal force, and the inner world for contraction and a centrifugal force.
Ocar Castillo, who was born in Mexico and came to Germany in 1999, works in both countries, and often finds himself, both biographically and artistically, in a conflict zone between a technological, rationalised world and the unconscious and mythical parts of our existence.
As a result of this conflict, scenes of sensuous colours emerge in Oscar Castllo’s work, which, on a deeper level than our understanding, hint at the origins of human existance.
