Caín Castro
Caín Castro is an enigmatic Mexican artist from Iztapalapa, known for his surrealist and countercultural style. Always masked, his anonymity reinforces the impact of his works, which offer a raw and symbolic vision of everyday life in a context of constant social and ideological marginalization. Through mixed media and compositions laden with symbolism, Caín addresses themes such as internal grief, inequality, and identity struggles, reflecting the complexities of growing up and developing in an environment marked by exclusion. His pieces fuse elements of surrealism with references to popular culture and urban reality, creating a unique and provocative visual language. Each of Caín Castro’s works invites the viewer to confront the duality of existence: between the grotesque and the beautiful, the intimate and the collective.
