JACOB DEL NEGRO
ARTIST STATEMENT
My practice is multidisciplinary and conceptually rooted, examining themes of human existence within the framework of Western capitalism. Visually, my work draws from Pop art and Minimalist traditions, often employing reflective and familiar imagery to provoke thought and reconsider the everyday.
Each project begins with an idea, with the chosen medium serving as a vehicle to best articulate the concept. This fluid approach allows for a dynamic engagement with material, while maintaining a consistent conceptual focus. Influenced by the legacy of the ready-made and the cultural significance of popular objects, my work engages with shared visual language to explore broader societal narratives.
Through these strategies, I aim to prompt reflection and dialogue, inviting viewers to reconsider the ordinary through a critical and contemplative lens.
