Biography

I work freely across various media such as painting, drawing, collage, photography, sound, video and occasionally performance.

My work is rooted in the political and geographical landscape of my native Sardinia. It expands out of this context to address universally significant themes of individual and collective subjectivity and responsibility, creating a persistently significant framework within which to think about who we are, and where and how we live.

Eliseo was born in Sardinia and moved in London where he studied and now lives. Eliseo’s work personally and intimately engages within the thematic of diasporas and political issues in connection to his Sardinian background.
In his time-based works such as video, sound and photography he gather materials from everyday activities both in London and his homeland In Sardinia. This also reflect his 2D works, by using both his personal photographs and images found on the internet. In this works Eliseo prefer to use found materials such as wooden panels and old furniture instead of conventional appliances such as canvases which he still uses less ofthen.
