Revista de Arte. At the same time, she began building a career as an independent curator, organising shows for such prominent artists as Eugenio Merino and Juan Carlos Robles. She is currently part of the curatorial team of FACBA (University of Granada Contemporary Arts Festival).

Pérez Castillo's experience and knowledge of the Andalusian contemporary art scene has earned her a seat on the jury panels of several important contests and prizes, including the Daniel Vázquez Díaz Grants awarded by the Provincial Council of Huelva and the Alonso Cano Prizes sponsored by the University of Granada.
