AN UNUSUAL SPIELBERG

Tiziano Pantano (aka Tizio 0.32) studied comics at the Scuola Superiore d’Arte Applicata of the Castello Sforzesco in Milan and in addition to being a cartoonist he is also a bass and double bass musician. He has collaborated with many writers on the Milanese scene and participated in numerous group exhibitions in this area.
 
Due to retinitis pigmentosa he gradually lost his sight: for this reason in 2018, to continue drawing blind, he started making “glued drawings”. Using many cards of different shapes and colors, he creates images, choosing the components by touch and glimpsing their appearance, without knowing the final result but only imagining it.
 
For this commission by Soggettiva Gallery he realized three artworks inspired by Shindler’s List, Indiana Jones and Cath me if you can).
