Bio

Simone Carraro nasce a Treviso nel 1995. Vive e lavora a Venezia.
Dopo aver conseguito il diploma in pittura all’Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia si dedica a pieno alla produzione artistica. Partecipa a svariate mostre e interventi urbani a livello nazionale e internazionale.
Il lavoro di Carraro è fortemente condizionato dai luoghi e dai contesti con il quale entra in relazione. Si interessa in modo particolare al rapporto tra uomo e ambiente, indagando le caratteristiche del paesaggio e gli elementi della cultura popolare ,traducendoli attraverso il proprio codice allegorico, in forme figurative e sonore.
Le arti visive e la performance musicale sono i mezzi espressivi attraverso i quali Carraro accosta immagini simboliche e figurazioni ritmiche , facendo rivivere mondi arcaici e interrogandosi sugli scenari futuri.


Simone Carraro was born in Treviso in 1995. He lives and works in Venice.
After graduating in painting from the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice, he became fully involved in artistic production. He has taken part in various exhibitions and urban interventions on a national and international level.
Carraro's work is strongly conditioned by the places and contexts with which he comes into contact. He is particularly interested in the relationship between man and the environment, investigating the characteristics of the landscape and elements of popular culture, translating them through his own allegorical code into figurative and sound forms.
Visual arts and musical performance are the means of expression through which Carraro combines symbolic images and rhythmic figurations, reviving archaic worlds and questioning future scenarios.
