Quayola
With an exhibition formula precisely designed for the Project Room space, Marignana Arte presents a focus on Quayola (Rome, 1982), one of the most widely acknowledged digital artists on the world scene, curated by Federica Patti.
In close connection with the E-merging Nature exhibition, videos and prints of the Remains series are shown, computer-generated images arising from 3D laser scansions of natural landscapes, wherein the very high quality of the files obtained and the successive rendering process allow to achieve an almost infinite and perfect level of imagery definition.
Quayola’s style is unmistakable: a computer vision that arises from famous subjects, and generates carefully thought-out compositions, brilliant and ultra-defined, elegant movements, involving narratives and an aura of transparent immediacy so convincing they become moving. Beyond the mastery of the medium, however, the distinctive character, the true strength of his production lies in the expressive originality that he is able to blend in the final rendering of his works, thanks to the constant constructive dialog he sets up between tradition and contemporary.
