Miguel Castillo Oñate, a contemporary Spanish painter, is an interdisciplinary artist traversing the realms of abstraction and figurative painting. Miguel holds a degree in Fine Arts from San Carlos, U.P.V, the Polytechnic University of Valencia, which has served as the foundation for his artistic exploration. In alignment with surrealistic principles, Oñate transcends the boundaries of reality, weaving dream worlds that captivate and elevate the viewer's imagination.
In Miguel Oñate's paintings, the initial impact is the vibrant chromaticism and the adept use of a diverse array of techniques. However, his primary interest lies in delving into the structural aspects of space at a drawing level. Beyond the surface, he explores the limits of plastic art, stating, "I combine different techniques and disciplines and confront opposites: order and chaos, strength and weakness, birth and destruction." This approach allows him to consistently discover new materials and concepts to incorporate into his work.
Oñate's artistic vision extends beyond the conventional, as he incorporates expanding structures—sometimes geometric, sometimes organic—that interact to form imaginary worlds. Through this exploration, he challenges singular and unidirectional thinking, inviting viewers to reflect and actively participate in interpreting the work, often leaving them with questioning thoughts.
Miguel Castillo Oñate has garnered significant recognition with prestigious painting awards and collaborations with several galleries, not only in Spain but also internationally, with representations in France, Germany, and the USA. His works find homes in numerous private collections and have earned placement in esteemed museums such as the MEAM in Barcelona, the Infanta Elena de Tomelloso Museum in Ciudad Real, and the Municipal Museum of Albacete, among others. Through his innovative and thought-provoking creations, Miguel Oñate continues to leave an indelible mark on the contemporary art scene, captivating audiences with his unique fusion of abstraction and figurative expression.
