Isabel Castello Ocampos

BIOGRAPHY
In her works, she seeks to communicate messages and feelings to the world, regardless of the materials she needs to use to achieve this purpose.

In this way, her work is a range of different proposals and pictorial styles, techniques and mediums that will not leave the viewer indifferent.

Isabel extracts elements from everything she observes, reads and hears to metamorphose them and create a new artwork that helps us question our presence in this world, as well as the influence we exert on our own environment.

She was born in Argentina, where she studied the Fine Arts Degree. In 2001 she settled in Spain with her family and from that moment on, the olive groves, the light and the blue of the Mediterranean Sea are present in her work.

Former Art teacher and Graphic Designer, her interest in the knowledge of New Technologies applied to artistic creation encouraged her to finish the Degree in Audiovisual Communication in 2015.

Her work can be found in both private collections and public foundations in Argentina as well as in the Excellency Deputation Artistic Fund of Castellón, Spain.

Currently, Castello Ocampos works full time with oil painting, watercolor, acrylic, ink, soft pastels, guesso, mixed med...
