MARIO COBÀS
Lives and works in Carrara, Italy
mario.carchini@libero.it
Mario Cobàs working on a pictorial research, photo and video at
the center are placed fragmentation problems and reworking of
the image, referring to the analysis of the unconscious through
dreams.
The wounds are windows on the Cobàs inner world; the magenta,
primary red, acts as an intermediary between the unconscious
and the artist’s personal pictorial technique, in which symbolic
elements are crushed and processed into new forms in an
attempt to overcome the contemporary reality and constant
projection into the future.
