EN – Flavio Pacino’s work spans drawing, sculpture, installation, and video installation, primarily exploring the relationship between natural and artificial elements, probing their boundaries and future possibilities. In 2010, he began studying painting in the Florence studio of Spanish artist Fran Bobadilla. In 2018, he worked as an assistant to Nuno Sousa Vieira in Leiria (PT), and at the end of 2019 he was invited by Gaetano Pesce’s studio in New York to collaborate on specific projects at the intersection of art and design. With a background in design and visual arts, his research focuses on the themes of space and nature, approaching them with a rational perspective while reflecting on their future.
IT – Il lavoro di Flavio Pacino (Firenze, 1993) si muove attraverso il disegno, media scultorei, installativi e video-installativi svolgendo principalmente un’indagine sul rapporto tra l’elemento naturale e quello artificiale, sondandone i confini e possibilità future. Nel 2010 inizia i suoi studi di pittura nello studio dell’artista spagnolo Fran Bobadilla a Firenze, nel 2018 è assistente di Nuno Sousa Vieira a Leiria (PT) e a fine 2019 viene chiamato dallo studio di Gaetano Pesce a New York per la realizzazione di specifici progetti a cavallo tra arte e design. Formatosi tra il campo del design e dell’arte visiva, concentra la sua ricerca sul tema dello spazio e della natura riflettendo in termini razionali sul futuro di quest’ultima.
