RIOTS london 2011 - polittico

Painting, Architecture, Landscape, Industrial paint / Glaze enamel, 90x100x1cm
The work of Vins Grosso engages with the evolution of the urban cityscape. As a result of his background in graffiti, Grosso has developed an understanding of the multiple layers and textures of the urban world and how this evolve over time. By often choosing to paint with spatulas instead of brushes, he develops work where the paint is pulled and spread across his chosen canvasses as if applied by a spray can.
Grosso´s earlier works comment on the virulent growth and regeneration of the city´s own landscape by depicting offices, municipal housing and tower blocks rising from great swathes of paint and color. He attempts to reveal the transparency of the architecture of reconstruction symptomatic of the excessive consumerism of society.

actually He intends to explore the often forgotten and overlooked world of abandoned places and disused industrial spaces through painting, installation and found objects.
