Ricardo Lima Castaneda

Ricardo Lima Castaneda is a mixed media artist with a focus on storytelling. Castaneda's diverse skill set encompasses music, visual art, particularly graphic design. He prides himself on the ability to weave these disciplines together to narrate compelling stories. Despite engaging in various creative endeavours, his core identity as a poet stems from my dedication to the art of storytelling, which remains a consistent thread throughout his work.

In his Final Year Project for Ravensbourne University, London, Ricardo Lima Castaneda curated the visual components of his marketing campaign, drawing from his experience as an independent music artist. As a versatile multi-media artist, Ricardo Lima integrates his musical proficiency with his diverse skill set, aiming to craft a comprehensive branding strategy that amalgamates his various talents and passions.
