Antonio Figuero

Born and raised in Port of Spain, Trinidad, Antonio Figuero (b. 1988) is heavily influenced by his day-to-day observations as he travels across the country recording his experiences in paint. Though familiar with other types of media, Figuero's love for oils is paramount, especially his favorite cadmium yellow light - without which he admits he would feel lost as it is critical to that feeling of warm, Caribbean light which Figuero chases. His love of this particular medium, combined with the love he has for being both outside and in the hustle and bustle, makes it inevitable that the abundance of stories and visuals would be recorded in this way, much to the public's delight. Figuero's work is featured in collections internationally, including the USA, Europe, and various Caribbean countries.
