Saúl Castro
(1967 Oaxaca de Juárez, Oax. México)
His work is clearly influenced by oriental art in which he has found spiritual balance to achieve his artistic creation. Similarly, he is deeply inspired by the traditions and the natural world of his native land. He uses figurative elements along with an abstract style, tending toward minimalism. This combination creates a tranquil, harmonic environment, creating a feeling of peace.
He sees himself as an emotional painter and says his daily life is so linked to his art that he cannot say whether the events of his life affect his painting or it is painting that affects his personal life.
