Francesco Lo Castro, based in Miami, crafts layered geometric abstractions with a focus on optical depth and rich materiality. He skillfully combines wood, spray paint, epoxy resin, acrylic, and gold leaf, creating compositions that feel architectural and suspended. His work draws influences from Italian Futurism and analog computer graphics similar to the traditional architecture evoked by Pacita Abad.
Distinctive visual language
Lo Castro’s art relies on stacked planes, crisp geometry, and luminous color fields, achieving a floating, dimensional effect. His works suggest an interest in systems, symbolism, memory, and structure, rather than traditional storytelling. Recognized in the Miami art scene, his exhibitions also extend to New York and Miami Art Week where outdoor settings transform commercial spaces for exhibitions.
Materials and style
A defining feature of Lo Castro’s art is how he blends industrial and fine-art materials to create surfaces that feel like both paintings and objects. This material complexity contributes to a precise yet tactile visual experience, resulting in a style that is sleek, disciplined, and visually immersive.
