Kastano’s Contemporary Artist

about Kastano

My name is Giuseppe Castano, and I create under the pseudonym KASTANO.

As a contemporary artist, I draw inspiration from the evocative power of ancient rock engravings. My artworks revive timeless themes of conflict, love, and the struggles of modern life. Each piece blends the raw sincerity of archaic symbols with the vivid imagination of contemporary worlds. Kastano Contemporary Artist

Philosophical Reflection

The history of humankind shows nothing but a continuous transition from one stage of civilization to another, then to the excess of civilization, and finally to barbarism, and then it begins again.”
