Mixed Media Storytelling and the Integration of 3D Worlds

€80.00

with Federico Solmi

The Workshop

Join internationally acclaimed artist Federico Solmi for an immersive introduction to his wildly imaginative practice, where drawing, painting, sculpture, digital animation, and cutting edge gaming technologies collide to form satirical, hyper theatrical universes. Known for his visually exuberant narratives that challenge historical myths and cultural storytelling, Solmi will guide you behind the scenes of how traditional techniques and advanced digital tools shape his artistic language.

This workshop is ideal for artists, students, and creatives interested in hybrid practices, world building, and the evolving relationship between traditional studio methods and contemporary digital workflows.

MEET FREDERICO

Federico Solmi’s work utilises bright colors and a satirical aesthetic to portray a dystopian vision of our present-day society. His exhibitions often feature articulate installations composed of a variety of media including video, painting, drawing, and sculpture. Solmi uses his art as a vehicle to stimulate a visceral conversation with his audience, highlighting the contradictions and fallibility that characterise our time. 

Through his work, Solmi examines unconscious human impulses and desires in order to critique Western society’s obsession with individual success and display contemporary relationships between nationalism, colonialism, religion, consumerism. By re-configuring historical narratives across eras, he creates social and political commentary works which disrupt the mythologies that define American society. 

Scanning his paintings into a game engine, Solmi’s videos confront the audience with his own absurd rewriting of past and present, merging dark humor and sense of the grotesque with new technologies. He creates a carnivalesque virtual reality where our leaders become puppets, animated by computer script and motion capture performance rather than string.
