The Industrial Relic: Bender (2026) 🤖

What if the pop culture icons of today were unearthed centuries from now like ancient archaeological artefacts?
Reimagining the legendary anti-hero from Futurama, this 1/1 hand-sculpted piece strips away smooth digital vectors in favour of brutalist cast-iron weight, pitted textures, and deep rust patinas. Peeking through the weathered visor is a single polished gold-leaf tooth—a touch of Joyful Alchemy preserved through time.
Hand-sculpted in mineral clay over wooden armature, finished with multi-layered acrylic washes and sealed in polymer resin.

Lithic Relic: Atlantic Puffin (2026) 🐧🪨

Excited to reveal my latest piece from the Digital Archaeology series.
This original 1/1 sculpture explores the tension between ancient, raw geological forms and vivid, living wildlife. By fusing deep basalt & mineral matrix textures with high-contrast acrylic detailing and a polished gloss finish, the puffin emerges like a relic frozen in time.

Officially submitted for The Natural Eye 2026 at Mall Galleries with Society of Wildlife Artists ✨

Details:
• Medium: Acrylic and protective gloss varnish on mineral matrix
• Specs: 32 x 20 x 15 cm | 3.3 kg
• Studio: Mr. Castle by Carlos Castillo

Swipe through to see the close-up details on the head and the raw back texture! ➡️

Taking a moment out of work and sculpting to step into the world of Ai Weiwei.

Visiting the Button Up! exhibition at Factory International in Manchester was a powerful reminder of how art, material, and history intersect. Spending time immersed in these massive installations—looking at scale, human story, and raw texture—always resets my perspective before stepping back into my own sculpts.

Highly recommend taking time to sit and absorb this one if you’re in Manchester.

The Midnight Monolith. 🐈‍⬛🧱

My latest study in form: a balance of sleek, obsidian-like feline grace and the raw, tectonic grit of the industrial archive. I wanted to see if I could capture the quiet, observant nature of the cat using the same "Primitive Pop" language I use for my larger monoliths.

It’s a bit of a departure, but it’s officially joining the Mr. Castle collection.

I’m curious—do you prefer the industrial "archaeological" relics, or are you loving this new "Minimalist Companion" direction? Let me know below! 👇
