Cayetano Sanz de Santamaría

Cayetano Sanz de Santamaría (b. 1997, Bogotá, Colombia) is a London-based visual artist working in painting, drawing, and etching. Influenced by surrealism, magical realism, and explorations of the human psyche, his figurative practice weaves narrative elements that invite reflection.

Sanz de Santamaría has exhibited internationally in solo and group shows. Highlights include a solo exhibition at Galería La Localidad, Bogotá (2022), the silent auction of the Association of Friends of the National Museum of Bogotá (The Lord of Light, 2022), and group exhibitions in London with Arusha Gallery, Bermondsey Project Space, The Gallery at Green & Stone, and BWG Gallery. He has received awards including the Tagsmart Award at The Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair and was shortlisted for the Waverton Art Prize.
