JUAN CASTILLO

Born 1990. Alhaurín de la Torre, Málaga.
Multidisciplinary artist: painter, tattoo artist, creative.

At 11 years old, I got very interested in graffiti and started drawing a lot. I studied illustration and began my career as a painter and muralist. Later, I discovered tattooing and got deeply into the world of symbols.
Now, my painting is about the relationship between the earthly and the divine, the tangible world and the symbolic one, as a natural consequence of my two main activities (naturalistic figurative painting and tattoos).
I paint because it is my way to communicate with the world and connect with God.”
