Luca Staccioli’s multidisciplinary artistic practice is research-based and process-oriented, merging sculptures, photos, videos, sounds, embroideries, drawings, and collages.
Staccioli’s hybrid works explore the sculptural and pictorial dimension of the everyday. They de-functionalize objects and consumer products, altering their scale, transforming their materials, and often employing found objects as matrices to generate new forms and narratives.
This specific processuality, understood as a political act of reimagination, aims to foster an alternative gaze upon daily life, challenging the mechanisms of aesthetic and identity homogenization and their impact on competitiveness, value, expectations, and the exploitation of emotional responses by social media. Diversity and imaginative transformation become vehicles for the decolonization of nature and everyday life.
Staccioli layers childhood fantasies, micro-stories, uprooted memories, everyday objects, and nomadic images proliferating across the internet and historical archives.
By reflecting on the shifting value of narratives and objects, and on the relationships between human bodies, artifacts, and ecosystems, Staccioli reappropriates images and realities eroded by consumption and productivity, exploring political terrains of reimagination.
