Antoinette Castro was born in London, where she read Pure Mathematics at RHBNC London University, later working in finance, even though her passion had always been to become a fine art painter and illustrator. However, it was not until her visit to one of Robert Mapplethorpe’s controversial exhibition, that her interest in photography was truly ignited and her passion grew. Obsessed with making pictures, she gave up her full-time work and embarked on her photographic studies, setting up a studio in Spain, allowing her to work on personal projects and as a freelance portrait photographer. Her work is often autobiographical, addressing personal and social issues. She achieved her BA (Hons) Photography degree at The University of West London. She moves between Tenerife, Madrid and London. She is currently using her photography to explore, identity and memory, which she does by re-enacting her past in the making of her pictures, as a way of revisiting it and connecting with childhood feelings. She is also developing further her project, Beneath the Fragile, where she uses the body to examine and confront personal issues relating to the transience of lfe, againg and the beauty found in the imperfections.
