About the Item
Marco’s background is in engineering and architecture, making him familiar with mathematical design and the awareness of geometry. When he decided to create art, he was naturally drawn to cartography, applying traditional techniques such as multiple Cartesian coordinates and polar system coordinates to maps he draws.
He is also deeply influenced by astronomy and navigation, frequently using charts for positioning at sea using star systems as well as revolution of the sun charts in his Mappa Mundi.
His work is produced in ink, acrylic, watercolour and gild on canvas.
This fabulous interpretation of Darth Vader presents as a striking fusion of science fiction and anatomical study. The subject is depicted in a composite of half mechanical and half skeletal anatomy, drawing a stark contrast between technology and humanity. The detailed cross-section exposes machinery intertwined with human bones, hinting at themes of transformation and identity. The use of subdued monochrome hues emphasizes the intricate linework, highlighting the meticulous craftsmanship involved. Geometric patterns in the background add a calculated, almost scientific aura, enhancing its dissective nature. The artist cleverly integrates text, lending an archival quality that suggests a blueprint or scientific analysis. This piece challenges the viewer to ponder the intersection of human and machine, making it a compelling study of dualities and existence.
