About

I make collage and mixed media art that expresses abstract emotions through a pop surrealist lens. I want to translate the emotions that resist language into images anyone can recognize — work that connects people across cultures through our main commonality: feeling. Each piece is built from recycled magazines and found materials, cut, layered and reassembled, because that is the human experience: fragments that only make sense once they are aligned. My process is intuitive and admittedly a little messy. I let the imperfect show, because sincerity is the point. — Camila Castillo, The Global Collage
