Marco Emmanuele was born in Catania in 1986, he lives and works in Rome.

​

He approached the visual arts after studying engineering and architecture. In his research, the relationship with technology and the ability of man to deeply transform the environment in which he lives is always firm. He deals with industrial materials such as steel, ceramics and glass, transmuting their nature in the artistic language and examining them in their expressive potentialities. 

In his last research he experimented the pictoriality of pigments obtained by mixing glue and glass dust. The latter element is chosen by Emmanuele between the debris gathered on the beach, differentiated by color and milled until it is ready to be spread upon the canvas or by using the technique of glass fusing, thus creating a dialogue between the charcoal drawing on paper and the hardness of the glass material.

The artist juxtaposes pastel chromatisms building the images in flat and materic fields, with a result that shows bold visive assonances with the techniques of the fresco and the mosaic.
