There is something so enthralling about Marco Mazzoni’s work. The softness, the color choice and the imagery. The imagery in particular is something to consider. He limits his work, or at least his recent work, to the illustration of this 1 same woman, in different states of silence, slow movement and dream-like states surrounded by butterflies, flowers and birds. Sometimes she has eyes. Sometimes she doesn’t. Sometimes she barely even has a face as if to represent moments stolen from her through the removal of her sight, either partially, or fully, by erasure or covering. I’d say she is a pixie or a fairy, but it’s more like she is an object of worship and her world and, it’s delight and sadness is his obsession.
