Kiko Alcázar has a boundless talent, and his work captivates at first glance, leading him in a natural, organic and intense way to become a true master in the use of Photoshop. He has really turned this tool into an ART with capital letters. His brilliant and internationally successful works -even acclaimed by the Tate Modern in London- display, among many other things, sophistication and irony. They combine his passion for drawing and his skill and talent using his digital art as a tool to compose a personal and fantastic world. For Kiko Alcázar, the image is an irony about life. Far from using Photoshop to conceal, he uses it in a way that consciously leads to intelligent, creative and sensitive abuse, as part of his creativity and way of seeing life, highlighting exactly the “non-deception”, according to the artist's own words. He thus generates a world of digital realism and fantasy, where Kiko Alcázar´s humanity, sensitivity and generous feelings stand out. His extreme originality and talent poured over faces, bodies and objects photographed by him on white backgrounds, allow him to create his own personal universe full of light and colour. All this builds, as if by magic, magnetic characters, immersed in atmospheres, landscapes and environments that seem to be out worldish. A world that can captivate from the very beginning for its intensity, strength and originality.

In FantásKiko, the artist shows how everything is possible in his world. He invites us to dream and to transform reality. Kiko Alcázar manages to humanise digital art. According to his own words, images, like music, are weapons that express with irony and colour the vindication of great concepts such as freedom. Provocation, Art, must also have the capacity to open our eyes to our little bubbles.
