Overview
Matteo Casali Caramello 2025 Catalog comprehensively presents the creative trajectory and conceptual evolution of this emerging Italian artist. Born in 1994, Matteo Casali Caramello graduated from the Venice Academy of Fine Arts, focusing primarily on painting while also expanding into sculpture, photography, and video art. His work is influenced by masters such as Francis Bacon and Edvard Munch, exploring the state of modern individuals amidst solitude, struggle, and self-identity. Through his distinctive brushwork and use of color, he captures the immediacy and poetic essence of each moment.
Matteo’s paintings convey a sense of ambiguity and incompletion. The figures appear as if stepping into our vision from another world, yet they do not fully belong. They wait quietly, gaze, or turn away from the viewer—not to narrate or dramatize, but as proof of “existence.” The spaces in his paintings are no longer mere backgrounds; they generate atmosphere—corners of rooms, street bends, seashores, or parks—evoking fragments of memory and dream with both precision and ambiguity.
His palette favors low-saturation greens, grays, and ochres, occasionally accented with hints of purple or pink, reminiscent of twilight’s lingering glow. Light is not cast from outside but emanates gently from the figures and spaces themselves, creating a quiet yet profound atmosphere. For Matteo, painting has always been a perpetually unresolved question: a means to understand his own feelings, a pause for thought, and ultimately a method to preserve and manifest existence.
The impact of the pandemic extended his artistic exploration into virtual reality, digital sculpture, and video. He continues to experiment with traditional media while embracing the possibilities technology offers, curating virtual exhibitions and seeking new ways to interact with audiences. This fusion embodies his belief in the resilience and future of art.
Matteo Casali Caramello 2025 Catalog is more than a collection of works—it is a journey of contemplation, solitude, and self-dialogue. It invites readers to feel the subtle, whispering energy within the silence of the canvas and to reclaim fleeting moments and traces of themselves in the spaces between reality and dream.
