Who is Román de Castro?
Born in 1998, Román de Castro is A multidisciplinary artist of contemporary art that is defined as a young man without exact certainty where to direct his future, how far he could go and how much success he could have art. Although his career began no more than a year and a half ago, during the Pandemia Román never dedicated himself to creating art and sharing in his social networks everything he created.
It was then that for the first time a gallery was interested in his works. In 2023, while he was on a family trip in France, he received a call informing him of the huge number of people visiting their works and if that were not enough, many of them interested in acquiring a picture or object with their unique footprint. From that point, his life was transformed; He resigned from his job as a journalist and became what he is today.
