Andrea Samory (Italian b.1991) materializes virtual images and intangible forces. He focuses on the biological body in relation to the stereotypical concept of nature, and on how familiar images, when released from their idealized context, can become a mirror for collective anxieties and expectations towards the future.

 

His works are produced using 3D printing techniques, referring myths and human hybris and so on.

 

His vocabulary takes advantage of shiny, soft and colorful materials to attract the viewer into a world of natural corruption and uncanniness - provoking the ambivalent feelings of repulsion and fascination, alienation and familiarity, recognition and corruption. These are reactions to nowadays incessant flux of both dystopic and utopic information regarding global society, climate, politics, technology.
