Izaac Darío Enciso Castillo

Izaac Enciso is the second son of the renowned Mexican cardiologist Jose Manuel Enciso-Muñoz (Father) and dentist Alicia Castillo Zapata (Mother). His father was the president of the Mexican Association of Cardiology for the period 2014–2016. His mother has played an important role as a supporting person throughout Enciso's life. Enciso studied at the University of Barcelona, where he obtained an MFA in audiovisual production and content development. He also graduated from the Universidad de Monterrey with a bachelor's degree in advertising / international marketing. He continued his education with courses and diplomas in film production at the Autonomous University of Nuevo León and Concordia University in Montreal, He attended the program for Motion Graphics at the Gnomon School of Visual Effects in Hollywood, California, Art Direction at the Underground School of Creatives in Buenos Aires and a Photography Portfolio Revision at Centro ADM in Mexico City by photographer Stefan Ruiz.

Enciso's work oscillates between the abstract, conceptual and graphic art. He utilizes computer software for 3D modeling, digital painting and design from which he conceives work that is turned into physical pieces. In photography he does visual research exploring with “on camera” techniques such as filters, light and visual illusions. Formally, his work is intended to expand the limits of visual perception and aesthetics. At the social level, Enciso's work is concerned with environmental, political, health, technological, human rights, animal rights and ethical matters. His work across all disciplines depicts emotions and personal stories with an underlying spiritual subtext.

On his work Symbols, in search of incongruity and the unexpected, Enciso embarked on long, slow walks in Los Angeles and cities in Mexico to find lived-in places, marked by prior actions and behavior. His street photography engaged with the traces of strangers, a play between unknown actors where streets became scenes. Sometimes he created his own interventions, interacting with certain objects or constructions with the intent to leave something behind for someone else to encounter. As a photographer, Enciso is not a documentarian but rather someone who is interested in the potential of everyday scenes and objects to create an emotional or conceptual impression. Seeing the ordinary as extraordinary, he makes arrangements within the frame of his viewfinder by manipulating objects, shapes and forms through processes of call, response and spontaneous improvisation. “Symbols is Enciso’s love letter to the lived-in city and a testament to his openness, awareness and sensitivity. It presents a conception of visual art as a gracious form of service and image-making as an expression of gratitude". Le Roy Izaac Enciso is represented by Visual Artists Group Los Angeles, CA.

Commercially, Enciso has produced work in Mexico and in the Hispanic and general US Markets for major companies such as Comcast, Time Warner Cable, Wells Fargo, Toyota, Got Milk, the Food and Drug Administration and Fairfax recordings of Disney Music Group.
