Self Portrait with jumping head while listening to Spatial Drums.
Lucio Cavallari (b. 1982, Reggio Calabria, Italy) is an Italian interdisciplinary artist based in Gothenburg, Sweden. His practice spans painting, installation, light, sound, moving image, and interactive systems.
His work explores different aspects of human experience through observation, experimentation, humour, and intuition. Rather than following a single narrative or philosophical framework, each work develops its own language and invites multiple interpretations.
His work has been presented internationally, including at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, SXSW in Austin, and MOCA Bangkok, Thailand.
To view more of his projects, please go to Mr Cavallari.
