BIOGRAPHY
​
Emilio Ferro is an Italian artist born in 1988. In his works he mixes light, sound and visual arts, creating light art installations for public spaces, museums and foundations. A poetic vision that, starting from the contemplation of the natural landscape, translates into projects capable of distorting the viewer's perception of reality, through a clever use of innovative technical elements, to create a new artistic experience, harmonic and absolute.
Ferro creates works that are monumental and light at the same time: projects characterized by avant-garde technologies, which affect the space in an all-embracing way and are developed on a large scale, without affecting the nature of the places in a definitive way, but enhancing their mysticism. His installations glide delicately over woods, vineyards, volcanoes and become an element of narration of the ancestral relationship between man and natural elements. An interdisciplinary approach where art, science and nature become sources of mutual inspiration and creative experimentation.
Exploring the territories inhabited by both humanistic and scientific culture, Emilio Ferro investigates the combination of art and nature questioning, with a fully contemporary sensibility, the impact of man on the ecosystem and the search for energy as a vital source.
