Marco Bizzarri's work reflects on landscape as an archive of time, shaped by his upbringing in Chile and a deep attentiveness to its rural and desert regions, where light, dust, and vast horizons cultivate a practice rooted in silence and contemplation. Relocating to the UK sharpened his sensitivity to shifting light and perception, reframing how colour and atmosphere shape our emotional relationship to place.
In Bizzarri’s paintings, dust becomes both material and metaphor. Layered, splattered, and partially erased surfaces echo the desert’s suspended particles, softening images while preserving traces. This tension between concealment and revelation holds the work in a state between presence and disappearance, where absence persists rather than vanishes.
Marco Bizzarri (b. 1988, Santiago, Chile; lives and works in West Sussex, UK) graduated with a BA in Fine Arts from Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile in 2014 and then studied at Turps Art School Studio Painting Programme in 2022. His solo exhibitions include Night Café, London, UK; Galería Patricia Ready, Santiago, Chile; INCUBATOR, London, UK; Unit 1 Gallery, London, UK; and Galería Animal, Santiago, Chile; among others. He has participated in group exhibitions at The Sunday Painter, London, UK; Lamb Gallery, London, UK; Palm Gallery, Taipei, Taiwan; Rubedo Art Projects, Milan, Italy; and Cooke Latham Gallery, London, UK, among many others. He has been awarded the de Laszlo Foundation Award, the Gilbert Bayes Award, among others, and has been in residence in IM Art Residency, The Fores Project, High House Residency, Unit 1 Gallery, and Centro ARC.
