ITALY

Pietro Lo Casto (b. 1986, Italy) is an artist working with images and video. He studied photography at the Pathshala Institute Bangladesh and has recently begun an MFA in Visual Arts at Chiang Mai University, Northern Thailand. Pietro sees his artistic research as the possibility to participate in the visualisation of posthuman paths driven more and more by collective conceptual creativity. His latest work “To Search the Secret of the Forest” includes acts of denunciation of structural injustice towards indigenous knowledge and other non-humans, defined as animals, plants and land, in an attempt to understand and deepen the multi-level relationship between humans and nature.
