Native New Yorker, Benjamin Casiano is an accomplished creative director, designer & painter. He received his BFA from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn. A lifelong artist, Casiano always considered painting his first love. Heavily influenced by renowned masters globally, he combines elements of Pop Art, Cubism with a touch of Fauvism. But it's the women who played a crucial role in his life, which is why he pays tribute to them with his paintings. He uses geometric & abstract shapes as a common theme in his one-eyed figurative. This motif symbolizes his alter ego & also serves as a portrait of his subconscious.

 

Casiano himself has shared, “I’m visually impaired, but the irony is I was painting figures with a single eye years before losing vision. Perhaps some kind of foreshadowing”. Despite these physical challenges, he has never allowed them to hinder his passion and dedication to art. His work has been showcased in galleries across the US & EU. Currently, his art is owned by art museums in Chicago & as far away as South Korea. He earned numerous honors, awards & worldwide recognition through global publications. 

His exhibitions span across various cities such as New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco & Paris, Corporations & private collectors worldwide have taken notice & have acquired a number of his works.

 

His ambition is pretty straightforward: To introduce something unique & unseen in the fabric of modern-day culture. His goal of do this one painting at a time. One exhibition at a time. The work on display is for sale.
