ARTIST
The Miaz Brothers are two Italian artists from Milan. Currently based in Valencia, the duo stands out for its unique contemporary style.
The two brothers present a completely new approach to portraiture, using a "blurring" technique. Both artists paint their works with an airbrush, a miniature gun that allows for precise painting. Using the airbrush, the duo blurs each of the works.
"By dematerializing the lines, we obtain a substantial indeterminacy of the image, which avoids any immediate reaction and encourages the viewer to use mnemonic associations for his personal visual encoding."
Blurring the lines is a real memory and visual experience for the viewer. "It activates our consciousness, which forces the viewer to recognize and reestablish the limits of his own perception, to regain control of reality. The paintings invite us to always take a considerable distance, to see the whole image."
Highly visible, the Miaz Brothers have exhibited their work all over the world, from Los Angeles to Bogota to Barcelona, and were featured on the cover of the New York Times Magazine last year.
