Marco Tagliafico (born 1985 in Alessandria, Italy) lives and works in Fresonara, Italy. He studied Oriental languages and completed a Master's Degree at Fondazione Modena Arti Visive. His work has been exhibited in several exhibitions including: As Islands (Castel Belasi, 2024), Boiling Projects (Fondazione Oelle Catania, 2020), Da Guarene all'Etna (Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo Guarene, 2019), 10 years old (Foro Boario Modena, 2017). In 2024, he won the Espoarte Arteam Cup award, in 2023 he won the MZ Costruzioni award at Art Verona, and in 2021 he won the New Post Photography award at Mia Fair. His works are part of several collections.
His work explores the concept of vision as an evolving process, seeking meaning in a world composed of elusive images. The landscapes depicted in his works become a visual metaphor for the dialogue between the physical and digital worlds—a fractured territory where the gaze dissolves, revealing a fragmented and uncertain perception of reality. The pieces take shape through the use of various materials, originating from photographic research and developing as a process of visual excavation. Within this perceptual void, a space opens up for imagination and potential multiplicity.
