DAN CASADO (b 1956 in Argentina, South America) In 2003 I established my home-studio in the volcanic island of El Hierro, one of the seven Canary Islands, selected by the UNESCO as a Biosphere Reserve. Here, I began making works transforming found objects into pieces of art: paper collages and sculptural assemblages. Reinventing human and animal forms, freely finding and showing the hidden figures inside found papers and materials, I wonder about human relations, the possibility/impossibility of communication, affections and illusions. Art is the tool to re-construct the world. Art is my key. |
