The Art of OCTAVIO CAMPO
Octavio Ocampo was born on February 28th 1943 in Celaya, Guanajuato, Mexico. He grew up in a family of designers, and studied art from early childhood. He paints the most amazing metamorphic art in the world. It is the most original art coming out of Mexico today. O'Campo is known for several works in his sometimes wryly sardonic, sometimes evocative paintings in which detailed images are intricately woven together to create larger images - the optical illusions fading back and stepping forward as you study the pieces, notice the details, and finally recognize the large scale intention.
This guy is good, his art is creepy and beautiful at the same time. Thanks to my auntie for introducing me to this Mexican artist.
