Giorgio Musinu was born in Genoa (Italy) in 1990
Currently curating projects in Genoa
His works do not refer to a recognizable form, but they approach a wide range of themes on different levels. Giorgio rejects an objective truth and a global cultural storytelling; he prefers rather the search for shadings and inner conflicts.
His interpretation of reality is multifaceted and metaphorical. As an artist he creates works in which the real event has yet to happen or is already finished: they are suspended moments, with environments and situations in which the drama unfolds in a frozen tension, destined to become memory of an action that, perhaps, will never take place.
