MATTEO GIACHETTI

"Matteo Giachetti"Artist and Photographer
Lives and plays in Milan.

SOMEONE SAID

The explosive collage approach of this artist brings a heightened sense of dynamism and chaos to his compositions. It is a real treat to see how iconic images are treated through the extensive use of overlaid transparent image layers and how the various elements within them interact and mix with each other. The sharp color contrasts and seemingly random patterns that form around the main subject energize the final image with a sense of movement and fluidity. Every inch of the picture plane is rich in detail and vibrant colors. Really beautiful work. - Celio H. Barreto

"Matteo Giachetti's Multillayers freeze the view to capture the image. He is a photographer and artist whose research goes beyond the usual cultural horizon. His analytical pursuits reveal a narrative connected to an ancient past but this does not overshadow his personal evolution. Giachetti is unfazed by critics and their inevitable categorisation of artists; he continues his quest for ever-evolving imagery." - Diletta Blaenaél

A visual assault of color with multiple layers of personality, with each image pulling you in for a subliminal message. - Guido Saldaña
