Donato Piccolo (Rom, 1976)
Seine Kunst untersucht verschiedene Natur- und Gefühlsphänomene, wobei er häufig technische und mechanische Geräte nutzt, um seine Werke zu erschaffen. Mittels einer groben Untersuchung der kognitiven Fähigkeiten des Menschen analysiert die Kunst Piccolos die perzeptiven Aspekte der natürlichen Welt. In seinen Kunstwerken untersucht er natürliche, physikalische, biologische und wissen-schaftliche Phänomene, die sich an Basis von Leben abspielen, wobei er als Hilfsmittel den emotionalen Aspekt benutzt. Er lebt und arbeitet in Rom, Italien.
