Abi Castillo (Vigo, 1987)
Ceramics has offered him a world of aesthetic and creative possibilities to give shape and volume to his creatures and characters. He feels the need to give life to objects, always looking for eyes to look into, which is why faces are very important in his work.
His works maintain a romantic ideal of the natural world, fanciful, as if it were his own garden, and his characters hide hints of humor and drama, always playing with ambiguity.
This ambivalence between mysticism and drama, between the monstrous and the beautiful, is very present in all his personal project.
Alicia Varela (Gijon)
Varela's work is characterized by its focus on geometric abstraction, which is reflected in his colorful and dynamic compositions. His paintings and drawings often feature shapes and patterns that create a hypnotic and vibrant visual effect.
In his work, Varela uses a meticulous and detailed technique that combines the use of line and color to create complex and expressive compositions. His works often reflect his interest in geometry, nature and architecture, as well as the relationship between humans and their environment.
Miguel Watio (Seville, 1966)
He is a self-taught artist who has lived in Gijón since 2004. From a very young age he showed artistic interests. Although he has had several exhibitions in cultural centres in Seville, he always worked there as an electrician (hence the name Watio) and it was not until 2011 when he held his first solo exhibition in an art gallery.
His career has oscillated between the figurative and the abstract, but always inspired by Pop Art.
A new stage has begun where his characters seem to have come back to life with their original pop within their landscapes of geometric abstraction.
