Victor Castillo: Cartoonish Nightmares

Victor Castillo was born in Santiago, Chile in 1973, the same year that military dictatorship was established in his country. Victor tells stories in his paintings, as if they were contemporary chronicles. His work appropriates the narrative logic of illustrations for children’s stories & the aesthetics of classic animations, to present us with allegories about cruelty, fear, rebellion, greed, indoctrination, violence & other abuses of power that the artist sees being imposed worldwide. His colorful work has also been described as political poetry coming from the Latin American experience. | Facebook | Twitter | CrossConnect

PENNY: Making Money Into Art

PENNY is a UK artist who cuts extremely detailed & tiny stencils using currency as his canvas. | Facebook | Twitter

"Painting on money, for me, has a parallel with painting in the street — in the minds of some it’s destroying something, ruining a perfectly decent surface. For others it’s about transforming something redundant into something beautiful, or at the very least intriguing, something to start a conversation, make people stop & think for a second."

Manit Srisuwan: SHE

Manit Srisuwan "Goft" (มานิตย์ ศรีสุวรรณ์) recently completed his fourth solo show, "SHE" at The National Gallery in Bangkok, Thailand. The show focused on the feminine, desire for flight, freedom & change, while accepting the arrows of outrageous fortune that necessarily come along with a flight path less taken. This marks a major thematic shift for the artist whose work over the previous 8 years dealt with distorted human figures as wooden drawing puppets suffering their "gam" or karma. I was lucky enough to meet the artist at an art fair last month & recieved a beautiful signed gallery book with all the art from the exhibition. A great reason to get out to galleries & see art in real life! ● More Manit: Facebook | Instagram | KaiFineArt
