Matteo Mezzetta

I have always been interested in the aesthetic and semantic gap, which comes from the transposition from photography to painting, in shades of gray.
I am looking for an original elaboration of hyperrealistic codes.
Therefore, before to create a painting I work on the photographic image. I develop the concept and than I create the set where the pictures will be taken.
The creative process is finalized to create an original and unique scene that is a piece of my artistic universe. The selected images will represents the most important switch points through my imaginary. Currently I’m working on GRAVITY, a series of paintings mixing the attitude of classic still lifes, where precious inflate sculptures revealing the idea of ephemeral beauty, with a research that reveal a futuristic vision connected with the spatial aesthetic that represent hope and the need of new form of life to guaranteed the continuity of human specie.
