Artist Biography:
Matteo Zamagni (b. 1992) is an artist working across visual arts, multimedia installations, film production, and electronic music. Through these distinct and intersecting creative forays, Zamagni connects an array or contemporary technologies and esoteric topics in order to critically explore the complex of crises that characterize a contemporary epoch of planetary-scale environmental, economic, and social upheaval. Zamagni’s practice offers a multi-scalar analysis of the consequences wrought by disaster capitalism and its lasting impact on the planet’s ecosystems. Using analytical geoscientific tools, VR/AR/MR, real-time generative imaging, world-building, photogrammetry, physics simulations, and CGI techniques, his artworks simulate and combine elemental natural forms with immersive media.
