Born on July 10th, 1964 on Utupu Island, Kuna Yala in Panama, Oswaldo De Leon Kantule has painted since 1980. Early in the 1990s, he began to show his works in Boston, Washington and Panama City, and finally in Montreal, where he lives and works, in 2003.

He is developing a protean work in which painting, drawing, engraving, sculpture, installation and performance come together on the threshold of a dreamland peopled by spiritual beings, fantastic animals and birds. Oswaldo De Leon Kantule has become a regular at the First Peoples' Festival.
