Francesco Lo Castro (b. 1976, Catania, Italy)
crafts art that probes the fundamental structures of physical reality, drawing inspiration from Italian Futurism, 1980s computer graphics, Finish Fetish, and Art Deco palettes. Rooted in contemporary contexts, his work responds to today’s technological advancements and socio-political dynamics. Central to his practice is a fusion of memory and futuristic vision, challenging the divide between biology and technology. He explores human agency amidst digital systems, reflecting on their impact on identity, as well as how global connectivity is reshaping shared spaces. Lo Castro’s work achieves depth through a dynamic interplay of digital design and tactile craftsmanship. His approach bridges new media trends with the enduring significance of physical creation. His compositions, rich with movement, balance intensity and calm, vibrancy and dreaminess, offering a soothing vision that encourages reflection on navigating rapid change and finding restoration.
