About me
Malcolmo is a 27 years old italian visual artist based in Madrid, Spain. In 2008 he graduates in Illustration and Multimedia Animation at Istituto Europeo di Design (IED), Rome, than beguins his career contaminating with a wide range of professional experiencies, from the editorial field (FEFÈ, Rojo) to mural (I.D.I.), story and movieboarding (Rainbow CGI), getting to mapping projections and interactive art (5º Asalto, Zoopa, Human Beans). His major achievement up to now is the invitation within Human Beens at the 5th Asalto, International Festival of Urban Art, in 2010 in Zaragoza.
His style is based on the visual representation of the functional characteristics of the two cerebral hemispheres, each of them linked to the opposite hand. Usually the black part is drawn with the right hand and corresponds to the left cerebral hemisphere: no proportions, no perspective, a lot of visual detail, rational part home of the ego. The red (or green) one is drawn with the left hand (right hemisphere): 3D representation, synthetic and creative side. His favorite materials are bic pens and acrylic paint on paper or canvas.
At present he collaborates within the spanish technological-artistic group Matheria Studio.
