Edoardo Piermattei lives and works in Turin, Italy. Raised in the Marche region, which represented the artistic hearth of Italy during the Renaissance, Edoardo Piermattei had always been fascinated by the imposing ancient architectural structures and by the richness of the color palette in their interior and exterior decorations.
He focalized his work on a modern and lively reproduction of those admire features. To decorate his architectural structures, Piermattei used the ancient fresco technique consisting of powders and pigments bonded with glue and concrete. This colorful aspect is firstly a tribute to the great Italian masters, and it immediately recalls the decorative cycle of Assisi painted by Giotto and Cimabue, not to mention the giant, graceful and light-colored clouds which dominate the ceilings of Giambattista Tiepolo.
