MARIO COBÀS (MARIO CARCHINI)
Lives and works in Carrara, Tuscany, Italy

Mario Cobàs (Mario Carchini) works on a pictorial, photographic
and video research at the center of which there are problems of
image fragmentation and reworking, referring to the analysis of the
unconscious through dreams. The artist carries out his creative
activity in the MM MC Studio, sculpture, painting and design, in
Carrara, Tuscany. The windows represent windows on the inner
world of Cobàs; magenta red acts as a link between the unconscious
and the artist’s personal pictorial technique, in which symbolic
elements are shattered and elaborated in new forms, in an attempt
to overcome contemporary reality and constant projection into
the future. Permanent works of art: Pinacoteca Civica Modigliani,
Follonica; Pecci Center Prato; The Art Museum Sharjah (UAE); Ugo
Guidi Museum Forte dei Marmi; Paper Museum, Pescia; Historical
Museum of Sant’Anna di Stazzema; Museum of New Art, Detroit;
Atlantic Center of Modern Art, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The artist
has participated in over 400 art exhibitions since 1997, we remember
the most important initials and the last ones as invited artist with
documentation and press review verifiable both online and in FB.
