Born in Malo, a small country village in the province of Vicenza in the north of Italy on 05/01/1996, Fochesato Simone is attending the last year of the three-year course at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice in the direction of Grafica D'Arte - engraving techniques.
In addition to being a student, Fochesato was elected assistant to the specialization teacher in the copperplate printing laboratory directed by Professor Andrea Serafini, and in the laboratory dedicated to Lithography directed by Professor Stefano Mancini.During his career he participated in several Italian prizes dedicated to intaglio engraving where his works were selected.
Fochesato, in his personal artistic research, investigates the relationship that exists between the analytical design of the structure of the human body and architecture, integrating aspects and meanings developed from the reading of religious texts.
The body is analyzed and depicted as a temple of God, where it transcends its merely carnal state to transfigure into a total redemption of the spirit.Geometric plans, spatial levels, perspectives and sacred architecture are integrated into the work, giving a sense of sweet spirituality. From the suffering of the body, man identifies himself more and more with the supreme temple, defeating the gravity that chains him to the world to elevate himself to a state of complete stalemate, exempt from time and space. It is precisely this fragment of life, this transformation, which is analyzed through a conscious use of traditional engraving techniques, without neglecting experimentation. Observing the work one is overwhelmed by a sensation of heaviness and lightness at the same time capable of distorting human perception, questioning the user on the purpose of his life in everything that surrounds him.
