Metamorphosis by Matteo Bernasconi

Matteo Bernasconi‘s exhibition Metamorphosis is inspired by the book of Franz Kafka. The work investigates the transformation and the changes that occur in each of us throughout our life span. Metamorphosis can occur at different levels – physically and mentally and is a transformation that provides an escape from a trap that oneself can be caught in.

Matteo’s work explores the human condition; the duality of human nature is a recurring characteristic in his paintings. He shows not only the mere physical appearance, the facade, but he focuses on unveiling something else, unseen. He exposes what the subject is, not just who the subject is.
