About Artist

Lucas Garcete

Lucas Garcete (b. 2000) is a Spanish visual artist working primarily with black-and-white conceptual photography. His monochrome practice combines staged silhouettes, controlled contralight, and digital compositing to construct symbolic and atmospheric scenes. Through a restrained visual language, Garcete explores the space between presence and disappearance, dissolving the human figure into archetype rather than individual identity. Influenced by Romantic and Gothic sensibilities, his work engages with themes of mortality, erasure, and psychological thresholds, creating images that operate between fine art abstraction and conceptual inquiry.
