Working from his studio floor, Hugo Castilho constructs scenes that blend reality with fantasy, shaping plaster onto blank canvases with a spoon before finishing each piece in enamel paint. A self-taught Portuguese artist, Castilho’s work incorporates ethical questions, humor, and pedagogical themes. Each process begins with careful consideration of the empty canvas, guiding his imaginative approach as he layers material and color to create his distinctive universe.
