About the Artist

DCastro’s artwork offers an immersive experience sprinkled with shock and awe. Through an original technique developed by the artist himself, his artwork dramatically changes depending on the amount of light it is exposed to. Witnessing a minimalistic, black and white drawing unexpectedly and suddenly bloom with color and details can be quite astonishing.

There is a fascinating attention to detail that encompasses everything in his work - from the brushstroke to the numerous messages that each piece communicates, to the flow of the overall composition. The startling level of craftsmanship creates a clock-like mechanism that seems to turn with such precision that it keeps the viewers ready for the next captivating discovery.

Overall, the artworks communicate messages of faith, hope and peace. Two recurring symbols in most pieces are the spiral and the eye, symbolizing spirituality. The background song suggested by DCastro for each artwork helps set the scene, mood and rhythm for each piece.

In 2010 DCastro developed a new art style that stands on the trinity of a new philosophy, a new technique, and a new style. The new philosophy consists of seven elements: modernity, contemporaneity, innocence, simplicity, spirituality, happiness and poetry. The new technique is the use of light and dark. And the new style uses repetition, music and uncommon use of the principles of perspective to produce three dimensional effects and movements.
