Biography
Refusing to be pigeonholed or pinned down to any formal ideas, styles or genres, Colavecchia constantly challenges his audience whilst pushing the boundaries of his artistic practice. For Colavecchia, art is less about answering questions, and more about posing them – a process that it is impossible to be reduced to a formula, or a single, easily comprehensible point of view, visual solution or technical style. Just as the world is in state of constant flux and evolution, so too is the artist’s response to it – and thus the questions keep changing. His exhibitions are often so technically and formally different that they defy conventional analysis. The lack of any integrating force within the works themselves, or a common theme or pre-determined purpose, means that each individual work can only be seen as a question, and possible answer, in its own right.
