Luca Staccioli’s multidisciplinary artistic practice is research-based and process-oriented, merging sculptures, photos, videos, sounds, embroideries, drawings, and collages. His hybrid artworks question the processes of aesthetic and identity homogenization and their influence on competitiveness, worth, expectations, and the exploitation of emotionality by mass media.
