‘Presencias’ is the title of the exhibition by José Manuel Molina Castro, a painter affiliated with ONCE, where he displays his inner world through 12 paintings. The exhibition, hosted at the Tiflológico Museum of ONCE, concluded on January 15, 2025. The title 'Presencias' reflects Molina Castro's desire for a part of himself to exist within each artwork. José Manuel Molina Castro, born in Málaga in 1960, is a multidisciplinary artist with a degree in Fine Arts, specializing in enamels, ceramics, and advertising design. His work often draws inspiration from his life, including scenes from Torre del Mar, its beaches, markets, flowers, and people, all interpreted through his distinctive understanding of life. He strives to make his paintings accessible to visually impaired individuals by working with planes and creating a subtle relief, perceptible to the touch, that hints at the drawing. The exhibition showcased works capturing the atmosphere of markets and port life, as well as portraits that distill the essence of people. Molina Castro employs acrylic and oil paints with a car body spatula, facilitating his production process and creating a tactile surface on the finished works. He also founded his own art school, ‘D’Art,’ in 2000, teaching painting, ceramics, and printmaking. Notable works included ‘Sonora soledad,’ a portrait of a man and his dog reflecting a weary soul, and ‘A mitad de precio,’ depicting a market stall.
