ABOUT


MATTEO DE CAMINADA (he-him), born 15.01.2001 in Bolzano, Italy, is a interdisciplinary artist whose work navigates the thresholds between sculpture, design, media, spatial intervention and drawing. Informed by an architectural background, his practice engages with systems of perception and embodiment. Currently based in Vienna, Austria and Weimar, Germany. De Caminda graduated in Architecture in Vienna, Austria, before transitioning into Fine Arts. He is currently enrolled in the Freie Kunst program at Bauhaus University. His work unfolds mainly across Austria, Germany, and Italy, where he moves fluidly between academic, institutional, and independent frameworks.




ARTIST STATEMENT


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 My nonconformist mindset compels me to challenge outdated social norms and behaviors, using my art as a tool for critique and reflection.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.
