ABOUT
MATTEO DE CAMINADA (he-him, b. 2001, Bolzano, IT) is an interdisciplinary artist, architecture graduate, designer, and curator. His practice articulates a clear artistic and political stance: the subversion of entrenched social conventions, the dismantling of problematic normative ideologies, and the advocacy for a progressive and equitable future. De Caminada lives and works between Italy, Austria and Germany while maintaining a strong digital presence through platforms such as Instagram and mdc000.xyz, launched in 2024 to host and distribute “objects of art and function”. He holds a degree in Architecture and is currently studying Fine Arts at Bauhaus University in Germany. His work unfolds mainly across institutional and independent contexts in Austria, Germany, Greece and Italy.




ARTIST STATEMENT
I believe art is inherently political. If it isn’t, it risks becoming mere ornament, self-congratulatory and disengaged. There‘s nothing inherently wrong with ornament, but let’s be clear: ornament decorates; art should disrupt, create tension, in my opinion.
My artistic practice is deeply rooted in my personal and social experiences, drawing from my strong queer identity, moments of trauma, and profound emotional introspection. I continuously analyse and question my surroundings, allowing my work to offer a nuanced and critical perspective on the world around me. My nonconformist mindset compels me to challenge outdated social norms and behaviors, using my art as a tool for critique and reflection.
I engage with multiple media, often integrating different materials and techniques, with a primary focus on sculpture. My practice sometimes positions me as a mediator between the object and the viewer, fostering interaction and dialogue.
Through my creations, I seek to subvert entrenched social conventions, dismantling restrictive ideologies and advocating for a more inclusive, progressive, and equitable society. My work is an ongoing exploration of identity, perception, and resistance. An invitation to rethink the structures that define our collective existence.
