Artist’s corner

Andrea Franzeine Castellano is a student from St. Dominic College of Asia enrolled in the Bachelor of Multimedia Arts program. During her free time, she expresses her creativity through modern and traditional mediums, like watercolor, paint tools, and more.

Unclear directions. Two lost souls wandering in an uncharted area are greeted by a mysterious figure showing them where to go. Do they follow that ray of hope, or stray away from the path due to the fear of the unknown?

Castellano hopes to become a skilled animator to further expand her creativity.

Besides her passion for multimedia arts, the young creative also has an affinity for macabre scenarios, among other things. She explores its color palettes and various patterns to unlock new perspectives for her craft and its audiences.

Some of her works, “Unclear Directions” and “Mounted”, are two prime examples of Castellano’s artistry.

Mounted. Butterflies are alluring creatures but like any other insect they are terrifying up close. This inspired a what-if situation where the roles are reversed; if humans are seen as beautiful, we’d be the one’s pinned in frames instead.

“I believe my interest in the genre peaked in high school. I found fascination for what others would find uncomfortable or terrifying. As a young artist, I had a knack in digital art and writing short stories. My main inspirations were different video games, songs, and movies that consist of anything psychological horror or just horror itself. Hence, it became a new means of venting for me. It was an outlet to express in a different yet exaggerated way of how I felt or was thinking at times,” she said.
