Thomas Canto,
Born in 1979,<\/strong><\/p>

Inspired by experts across a variety of industries, Thomas Canto has charged himself with the task of finding the connection between the different areas. He is known for his work distorting speed and city structures until their original forms are effectively unrecognizable. Regardless of the genre, Thomas Canto finds inspiration from figures like the Hungarian painter and sculptor L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Moholy-Nagy to architects like Zaha Hadid and Jean Nouvel among others. His works also focus on creating images new through various medias and technologies that express the relationship between humans and architecture.<\/p>

Thomas Canto\u2019s works are precise and geometric in nature, using boundary lines to delineate spaces where tension can be released. He relies on light and shadows to compose his pieces with reflective effects, sometimes layering moving images with video projector mapping over sculptures to rebirth the pieces into installation art.<\/p>

Thomas Canto\u2019s repertoire is based on the energy of cities, which he is able to incorporate into his pieces thanks to his deep understanding of optical and kinetic art.
Light and movement are critical elements in contemporary art today, and these focal elements are clearly evident in his works.<\/p>

Pieces by Thomas Canto depict a fine and detailed world of cities and interactions between humans and their urban environment. Containing modern components, his pieces are all accented with his unique individual flair. Additionally, the artist considers the many reiterations of daily life in the city and works to convey the chaos of the scenes through a variety of elements bending together.<\/p>

Thomas Canto,
N\u00e9 en 1979,<\/strong><\/p>

Inspir\u00e9 par des experts de divers secteurs, Thomas Canto s\u2019est charg\u00e9 de trouver le lien entre les diff\u00e9rents espaces qui composent notre environnement. Il est connu pour son travail d\u00e9formant la vitesse et les structures de la ville jusqu\u2019\u00e0 ce que leurs formes d\u2019origine soient effectivement m\u00e9connaissables. Quel que soit le genre, Thomas Canto s\u2019inspire d\u2019artistes comme le peintre et sculpteur hongrois L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Moholy-Nagy, d\u2019architectes comme Zaha Hadid et Jean Nouvel entre autres. Ses \u0153uvres se concentrent \u00e9galement sur la cr\u00e9ation d\u2019images nouvelles \u00e0 travers divers m\u00e9dias et technologies qui expriment la relation entre les humains et l\u2019architecture.<\/p>

Les \u0153uvres de Thomas Canto sont de nature pr\u00e9cise et g\u00e9om\u00e9trique, utilisant des lignes de d\u00e9marcation pour d\u00e9limiter des espaces o\u00f9 la tension peut \u00eatre rel\u00e2ch\u00e9e. Il s\u2019appuie sur la lumi\u00e8re et les ombres pour composer ses pi\u00e8ces avec des effets r\u00e9fl\u00e9chissants, superposant parfois des images en mouvement avec un mapping vid\u00e9o\u00a0 sur des sculptures, cr\u00e9ant ainsi des espaces complexes \u00e0 appr\u00e9hender.<\/p>

Le r\u00e9pertoire de Thomas Canto est bas\u00e9 sur l\u2019\u00e9nergie des villes, qu\u2019il est capable d\u2019incorporer dans ses pi\u00e8ces gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 sa\u00a0 compr\u00e9hension de l\u2019art optique et cin\u00e9tique.
La lumi\u00e8re et le mouvement sont des \u00e9l\u00e9ments fondamentaux de l\u2019art contemporain aujourd\u2019hui, et ces \u00e9l\u00e9ments focaux sont clairement \u00e9vidents dans ses \u0153uvres. Ces derni\u00e8res d\u00e9peignent un monde fin et d\u00e9taill\u00e9 de villes et d\u2019interactions entre les humains et leur environnement urbain.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
