Tòrbio

About

Now you can come along and read about  Nicolò Masiero Sgrinzatto (n. 1992, Arre, Italy) whilst browsing the windows. Seeing, looking, listening with the possibility of hearing. The exhibition is similar to a country fate. The sound behind you coexists with the image that leaps in front of you.

The titles of the works come from the region of Veneto, traveling in the artists luggage. Tórbio, or turbid. A clouded vision with a clouded head, like an atomic hangover of varying degrees. Coming from “turba”,to mean disorder.

In the confusion discovering and finding the pleasure of holding something between ones fingers that gives signs of an explosion that is about to happen in your very own hands. The ambition to control an outbreak by its uncontrollable, unpredictable nature with compositional attention. The desire to see what, from the inside, will flow out. Escaping from the phalanges that call to order the reason that dares to venture a program. The innate indiscretion that leads the pupils of the eyes to rummage in the breach that has torn order apart, to focus on the chaos.

Nicolò Masiero Sgrinzatto (n. 1992, Arre, PD, IT) has participated to numerous personal and collective exhibitions, such as: Art Stays, Ptuj (Slovenia) curated by Manuel Frara, Oikos, Casa Bossi, Novara curated by Elisa Barbieri, Riccardo Caldura, Carlo Scarpa; Diskoteque, Venice Art Project, curated by Default, The Area of Bustle. Sgrinzatto also participated with M.A.C., KNOWVISIT, and he won first prise for his installation - ContemporaneaMENTI 2018, Fondazione L’Arsenale, Iseo.
