MATTEO MELIOLI

In my architectural collages, building’s fragments are drawn together, superimposed and overlapped. The resulting space is a hybrid architecture that contains other pieces of architecture, all them transformed by means of free associations. I derived this technique from the late baroque Invenzione, a pictorial gender born in Venice and Rome at the end of the XVIII Century and characterized by the collisive, ambiguous or sometimes exotic juxtaposition of real and imaginary places.’
