Mario Uliassi lives and works in Milan. He is studying visual arts and curatorial studies in Naba.
His practice has its roots in drawing, in the intimacy of the sketchbook. Arriving in Milan it changed to embrace different languages. The painting remains the focus of the practice, which then extends to the accumulation of found materials and their organization into sculpture or installation. In the case of video productions, the depiction is concentrated in the recording of the performative trace of the human body.
