Biography
Tonino Mattu was born in Nuoro (Sardinia, Italy) in 1979.
His works research the links between man and faith, intended in all of its meanings: religious faith, faith in science, faith in all the aspects of today’s society (advertisements, media) and faith in the history that lies behind us. Central in these considerations is the mankind, represented in its most carnal dimension, with implications on all existential significances. The reprocessing of the traditional iconography becomes a tool for adapting the foundations of our visual interpretation to the fears, doubts and ambitions of today’s society.
