Marco Scorti

 
Marco Scorti’s researches arise on the theme of the landscape, not as a natural element but as an inner component of the painting itself. Obsessed by the two-dimensional representation, Marco Scorti explores the tensions between the illusory space and the pictorial surface, and accordingly the relationship, even physical, that the viewer can develop in relation with the pictured objects. Marco mainly depicts places emerged by his memories, in which the human presence is perceptible only by some trail and clues. The created images are in some respects present and concrete, both for the painting itself and for the represented elements. On the other hand, they are distant, ambiguous and atemporal, due to their origins in the subjective memory.
