Description
God of light, beauty, the arts, and prophecy, Apollo embodies balance and power. This series reinterprets his figure through a contemporary lens, where color and pop aesthetics do not contradict his classical origin, but rather revitalize it.
Each bust is a tribute to the permanence of the ancient world—a way of showing that the classical spirit remains alive, transforming over time without losing its essence. Apollo endures: eternal, radiant, and ever-present.
From the series Apolo. Resin and lacquer paint. Dimensions: 17.3 x 11.0 x 11.8 inches. Edition 1/5 Weight : 19.8 lb
----
This artwork presents a contemporary reinterpretation of classical sculpture, featuring a vividly colored turquoise bust. The piece reflects an innovative fusion of ancient and modern aesthetics, drawing on the traditional elegance of Greco-Roman art while employing a bold, minimalist color scheme. The bust portrays a serene yet powerful expression, capturing the timeless grace of classical figures. Its monochromatic palette emphasizes form and texture, stripping the artwork of distractions and allowing the viewer to focus on the intricacies of the sculpted details, such as the flowing locks and smooth contours. This is an assertive statement piece that challenges conventional perceptions of historic art by reviving it with a modern twist. The vivid color choice not only captivates attention but also invites reflection on the interplay between past and present in the realm of artistic expression.
Presentation
Paloma Castello was born in 1988, Bogotá, Colombia.
I use my work to bring life or a different narrative to an object's past. I'm interested in playing with memory and relating it to the present, creating an atmosphere between reality and fiction. My family and social background have a powerful influence on my work. I grew up surrounded with objects and anecdotes inherited from my ancestors that inspire endless surreal stories. My work emerges from these experiences; they are evidence of my “auto-fiction".
"Paloma Castello presents to us a nostalgia-filled body of work. The collection represents the soul of her proposal: inherited objects discovered or found that have become the tip of the iceberg of her past. These are elements she collects, recollects and then classifies following a method that frames her anachronic attitude that proves as evidence of the youth of her art.
She also demonstrates that the experimentations on herself are common in an artist who's just beginning her career. Without a doubt, this resource, valid and true becomes the road that determines the experimental character of the author.
Castelloland works with objects whose uniqueness proves to be fundamental to the piece's narrative in each story because each piece reacts and happens through the word and object interaction. This series is composed by more than 30 small format photographs and the stories that are linked to them that sway between fiction and reality."
