Insular art, also known as Hiberno-Saxon art, is the style of art produced in the post-Roman history of the British Isles. The term derives from insula, the Latin term for "island"; in this period Britain and Ireland shared a largely common style different from that of the rest of Europe. Arts historians usually group insular art as part of the Migration Period art movement as well as Early Medieval Western art, and it is the combination of these two traditions that give the style its special character.

Most Insular art originates from the Irish monasticism of Celtic Christianity, or metalwork for the secular elite, and the period begins around 600 AD with the combining of 'Celtic' styles and Anglo-Saxon (English) styles, in particular the interlace decoration as found at Sutton Hoo, applied to decorating new types of objects mostly copied from the Mediterranean world, above all the codex or book. The finest period of the style was brought to an end by the disruption to monastic centres and aristocratic life of the Viking raids which began in earnest in the late 8th century. These are presumed to have interrupted work on the Book of Kells, and no later Gospel books are as heavily or finely illuminated as the masterpieces of the 8th century. In England the style merged into Anglo-Saxon art around 900, whilst in Ireland the style continued until the 12th century, when it merged into Romanesque art. Ireland, Scotland and the kingdom of Northumbria in northern England are the most important centres, but examples were produced in southern England, Wales and in Continental Europe, especially Gaul (modern France), in centres founded by the Hiberno-Scottish mission and Anglo-Saxon missions. The influence of insular art affected all subsequent European medieval art, especially in the decorative elements of Romanesque and Gothic manuscripts.

Gastón Arévalo (born March 17, 1981) is a Uruguayan electronic artist who has performed in various international festivals and events. His music is a combination of ambient textures and organic rhythms, noises, and sounds, mixing electric-acoustic collages and visual landscapes. He has an aesthetic interest in nature as fundamental influence in his sound.

In its beginnings its work contained an important audionarrative influence, that soon it was disappearing before a search to deep melodies and visual landcapes. He works with visual pieces that incorporate in his live presentations, experimenting in live cinema and visual code.

At 2011 he compose a work called "Deriva" based on the tales written by Horacio Quiroga. This work is released at limited edition tape format. He shares line-ups with artists like Biosphere, Sun Ra Orchestra, Minilogue and many others.
